Scholarships are funded by philanthropists and allow Cottage by the Sea program participants to pursue dreams that may have once felt out of reach.
When there is a cost associated with a child following a dream, it can seem out of reach. But with a little financial support and encouragement, the young person unlocks a whole universe of possibility. The power of these scholarships lies in their ability to provide young people with inspiration, hope and confidence to reach for their goals.
The impact of this funding on young people is life-changing. We supply the participants with the necessary items they need to have a positive impact in the world. It allows them to flourish in the present and the future. Without these scholarships, they may not be able to obtain what they need as there are often too many challenging circumstances for these young people to navigate without adequate support and positive role models.
Thank you so much for financially supporting me in being part of the Western Ballet Project...
being at Cottage has helped me to build my resilience and persistence even more in order to be even more confident. I am so grateful to have your support during my journey and I hope that you know it was definitely worth it. Thank you CBTS!

that I received as part of the REEF Camp Scholarship. I have been interested in space since early 2020 and ever since, I have been reading space books whenever I can in school and watching YouTube videos at home to increase my knowledge. With this telescope, I have been able to see Saturn’s rings and its moon Titan. I can also see four of Jupiter’s moons. When the moon was bright, I could get insane close-up images of our Earth’s moon. This telescope will help me become an astrophotographer or an astronomer so THANK YOU, I appreciate this opportunity.

It has helped me as a human in many ways, from increasing my athletic abilities to helping me be more social and make more friends – being able to do all this stuff is quite amazing. Cottage by the Sea has given me an opportunity I wouldn’t have had otherwise – it has really helped me in a lot of aspects and I am very thankful that.
