It was established with the initial endowment and formation of their foundation (the ABC Benefits Corporation Foundation) in 1998. Alberta Blue Cross knows that supporting education improves the wellness of their communities. And they’re proud to support all their scholarship recipients through their educational journeys and beyond.
