Jaymie-Lynn Robertson Memorial Fund

The Jamie-Lynn Memorial Fund is committed to supporting the education and well-being of individuals and families affected by epilepsy, and as such, has established a bursary program to provide financial support to students pursuing their education while coping with the challenges of epilepsy. The bursary program is open to students with epilepsy, as well as those who have been affected by the condition, whether through a family member or friend.

Through this program, the Jamie-Lynn Memorial Fund aims to reduce the financial burden on students and families affected by epilepsy, allowing them to focus on their studies and achieve their academic goals. By providing financial support, the bursary program aims to empower and encourage students to pursue their passions and make a difference in their communities, just as Jamie Lynn did during her life.

Student must be entering into or returning to trade, college or university studies in a BC post-secondary institution.  By providing support to these students, the Jamie-Lynn Memorial Fund hopes to inspire the next generation of advocates and leaders in the fight against epilepsy.
