CUPE 4254 Scholarship

          Part of CUPE Local 4254’s mission is to improve working conditions for all its members. In addition to this we want to encourage and inspire youth to imagine a world in which all workers are supported and represented. CUPE Local 4254 dreams of a Saskatchewan where all youth are informed about the importance of unions and the good work that unions have done in improving working conditions for workers. As a part of that mission CUPE Local 4254 has created a scholarship of $500.00 awarded to one youth who is graduating from a Saskatchewan high school, or who is currently enrolled in a recognized university, college, or trade school. Scholarship applicants are invited to respond to the essay question and submit their application along with their essay to scholarship4254@gmail.com by November 1, 2023.

Please check the link above for scholarship application.

          We look forward to reading your application and essay and wish you all the best as you prepare to enter the workforce!

 

In solidarity,

The CUPE Local 4254 Scholarship Committee

Education workers give back with donation to Saskatoon Food Bank.

CUPE education support workers from Saskatoon Public, Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools and Prairie Spirit School Division have donated over $1600.00 to the Saskatoon Food Bank.

In March, the four locals offered 300 tickets to education support staff to attend a Saskatoon Blades Game for the second annual Education Support Workers Appreciation Night. CUPE members were asked to make a small donation to the Saskatoon Food Bank in exchange for a ticket.

Together, these workers were able to come together to enjoy an event celebrating their hard work and support a local charity.

The leadership of CUPE Locals 8443, 2268,  4254 and 3730 felt it was important to give back to the food bank because so many of our own members utilize this service. With the rising cost of living, so many workers-including education support staff-are often faced with the choice of paying bills or buying groceries, or choose what meal to skip so their kids are fed first. We are grateful for the services provided by the Saskatoon Food Bank and Learning Center and hope to provide additional support in the future.
