Supporting innovative students at institutions across Canada by providing access to the software they need to excel.
Empowering Students
Supporting innovative students
In the spirit of giving back, Jevi (Jevonne Elizabeth Peters) developed this grant, dedicated to helping university and college students in Canada innovate and develop their creative ideas.
The grant supports students by providing access to the software tools that they need for research and creation. This grant was inspired by her past challenges with securing software licences as a creator, and considers the applicant’s creative potential, and demonstrated creative ability.
The Peters Innovation and Development Grant awards $250 towards the purchase of software or licences.
