Donations to the COVC Scholarship Fund

In 1952, the Canadian Opera Volunteer Committee, then refered to as the Canadian Opera Women's Committee, introduced its tradition of awarding scholarships to opera students in the Opera Division of the Faculty of Music at the University of Toronto. Since then over 725 scholarships have been presented. These scholarships were made possible through the generous support of the COVC's benefactors, patrons, endowments, sustaining members and donors.

The COVC gladly welcomes new supporters.  In our efforts to encourage and support talented opera singers in training, we encourage those who may be considering a donation to the COVC to establish an endowment towards a scholarship.  A scholarship may be created as a tribute to a friend or relative; by marking a special occasion; or to remember an individual through a memorial dedication.  If you are considering establishing a scholarship or endowment or contribute to the COVC Scholarship Programme, please contact Francine Lewis at the COVC at 416-863-0364.
