2024 CPRS-VI Denis Racine Bursary Application

2024 CPRS-VI Denis Racine Bursary Application
Since 2010, the Canadian Public Relations Society of Vancouver Island (CPRS-VI) has made it easier for Vancouver Island's public relations professionals to stay current in their field. In memory of the CPRS-VI past president Denis Racine, CPRS-VI provides at least one Vancouver Island member an annual bursary to support their educational goals.

In 2017, the bursary was increased to $1,000. In 2021, with the support of the Racine family, we changed eligibility so any CPRS-VI member could apply.

To be eligible you must be:
- A member of CPRS–VI in good standing (student or full membership)
- Live on Vancouver Island or the Gulf Islands
- Registered in a communications-based post-secondary educational course
- Enrolled in at least two courses
Considerations for selecting a recipient include length of time as a CPRS member, community involvement, volunteerism, academic excellence, and career objectives contributing to the field.

The successful recipient will be expected to write a thank you note to Denis Racine’s family as well as be invited to write a CPRS-VI blog post for future promotional purposes.
