Engineers Canada has generously
donated its accounting services, translation
services and staff support to the Foundation since 1990 and is the longest CEMF partner.
Historically, Engineers Canada also provided the
office space for CEMF, now located in Renfrew,
Ontario. Each year, Engineers Canada
has welcomed Foundation scholarship winners as guests to their Annual
General Meeting, provided the Foundation with an Awards Luncheon to honour
the winners and acknowledge its sponsors. Winners are treated,
by Engineers Canada, to the Friday Fun Night and invited to
attend the gala supper. The strong support of
Engineers Canada has enabled the Foundation to grow from the original five
scholarships to the 16 offered today.
