This scholarship was established in 2001 to remember Betty Spencer, who served GGC faithfully for many years. At the time of her passing, Betty Spencer was the Provincial International Director and had demonstrated her enthusiasm for and dedication to post-secondary learning by GGC members. There is no separate application for the Betty Spencer Scholarship – it is awarded annually to the highest-scoring applicant from Newfoundland and Labrador who applied for a GGC national scholarship but was not selected. The amount of this scholarship is determined annually by the provincial council. The GGC National Scholarship team will notify the Provincial Commissioner(s) of the highest-scoring NL applicant who did not receive a National Scholarship. The recipient will be notified by the Provincial Commissioner(s). The recipient is expected to confirm acceptance at a Canadian educational institution and provide a photo for publication and a written acknowledgement of the value of the scholarship awarded by October 31.
