Bequests
"To promote higher education of women, especially through awarding scholarships, fellowships and/or bursaries" This is one of the key purposes of CFUW Sudbury and one which we as members have honoured and supported for decades. This is only possible because of the generosity of our members and astute management of our financial resources.
An ultimate expression in belief of our purposes is the consideration of a bequest to CFUW Sudbury in one's Will. This would help ensure our continuity as an organization and our ongoing commitment to women in the pursuit of their academic goals. Please consider a bequest to CFUW Sudbury as part of your financial planning.
