Proceeds from this fundraising event will support our Scholarship Program for post-secondary students who identify as blind, deafblind or partially sighted, furthering their studies in British Columbia.

Receiving the AEBC scholarship enabled me to continue with my Provincial Instructor Diploma Program. Students taking this program are unable to access Student Aid funding due to the nature of how the courses are offered so students must pay out of pocket to take the diploma. Without the scholarship, I would never have been able to continue my studies. --Mitch Kidd
As a recipient of an AEBC scholarship, I have been able to exponentially increase my independence while pursuing my undergraduate degree. I moved into residence on campus at the University of Victoria, finished my first semester of classes, and discovered a passion for neurobiology that has led me to a new goal of gaining admittance to medical school. Thank you so much to all of the donors and AEBC members that make these scholarships possible, I could not be more grateful for the opportunities that this scholarship has afforded me. --Margot Wehrle
