Keith and Dorothy Sjögren Philanthropy Award

In 2013, the Sjögrens established this annual award to recognize the importance of arts and culture. It goes to a student working in the cultural or performing arts community in Canada. It recognizes the importance of the cultural sector to the fabric of Canadian society and the ongoing need for leadership within this sector, which is often challenged to raise funds to provide for leadership development. Read more about how and why the award was set up.

 

MPNL Alumni Award

The award was created by MPNL graduates and championed by the fourth cohort of the program. Once the award reaches $2,000 in donations each year, the amount is matched, dollar for dollar, by Carleton University, resulting in a $4,000 award for an incoming MPNL student.
