Grande Prairie post-secondary students and faculty are being invited to apply for a country-wide program to bring Thanksgiving to post-secondary students away from home.

From September 12-23, post-secondary student groups and faculty are invited to apply for one of eight $2,500 grants for an on-campus Thanksgiving celebration as part of the Join Thanksgiving Fund.

The fund is part of the Think Turkey campaign and aims to create a greater sense of community on campuses across Canada and welcome more people to the Thanksgiving tradition.

The grant recipients will be announced October 1. Grande Prairie students and faculty can apply here.
