Howard Jackson Memorial Bursary

The NSVRA created the Howard Jackson Memorial Bursary in memory of Howard Jackson who passed away in November of 2011. Howard was a long time Volleyball Official, Coach, and Volunteer in Nova Scotia. The NSVRA members raise money for this program by donating their time and hosting a club tournament every February.
 
The purpose of the bursary is to promote, encourage and sponsor young volleyball referees and players who are currently attending College or University in Nova Scotia. The Howard Jackson Memorial Bursary awards two $1,000 bursaries each year, ideally to one male and one female.
 
Bursaries are awarded based on the following criteria:

• Volleyball Official, Player
• Financial need
• Community and volunteer involvement
• GPA of 75% or above 

Applications are due January 10, 2017
