How do we raise funds to provide financial assistance?
The Friends of Alberta Junior Hockey Society is a registered non profit society, and as a result, we can hold casinos in Alberta as our major fund raiser. We are also a registered non profit group with a charitable foundation registration number, and we can approach corporations or individuals, and offer a tax receipts for any donation made to our scholarship foundation.
Founded in 1985
It began in 1980
The AJH Scholarship program began as an idea. To establish a scholarship program for Junior A level hockey players to assist them with funds to continue on to higher education.
The program began in early 1980 with the formation of a scholarship committee chaired by then AJHL vice president Bob Russell. He was joined by Ton Haynes and Don McCombie. The three committee members researched various types of post secondary education, talked to other scholarship granting institutions, and reviewed current tuition costs.
