George Brown Polytechnic is located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and other Indigenous peoples who have lived here over time. We are grateful to share this land as treaty people who learn, work and live in the community with each other.
Every donation to the George Brown College Foundation has an impact. Your contributions help create supports and programs that advance learning, career readiness and well-being.
Scholarships, awards, and bursaries, and other donor-funded initiatives mean George Brown students can pursue their education with confidence and support.
Supporting Student Scholarships
