Affinity Co-operative Award

Big dreams deserve big opportunities!

Applications for the 2026 Affinity Co-operative Award are now closed. They will re-open in late 2026 – please check back then.

The Affinity Co-operative Award is a unique and rewarding opportunity to learn about money, leadership, co-operatives and a whole lot more. This program is designed for young Affinity Credit Union members who are looking to do something big with their future. The $2,500 to fund your education is a great perk, too!

About the Affinity Co-operative Award

Twenty-one lucky Grade 11 students are accepted into this program every year and we work with them throughout Grade 12. If you’re selected, here’s what you have to look forward to:

• Gain real life experience and find out what it means to be part of a co-operative organization.
• Work closely with our member representatives and attend a member council meeting.
• Learn about co-operatives, financial literacy and gain valuable leadership skills.
