To Apply for a Financial Assistance Grant:

  1. Approach your Monthly Meeting/Worship Group for financial support with attending CYM.
  2. If the Monthly Meeting/Worship Group cannot provide enough supplementary funds, then apply for a grant from CYM.
  3. Request a minute of support from your Meeting and include this in your application.
    Young Adult Friends are encouraged to contact Cameron Fraser, CYM Secretary, if obtaining a minute of support poses a challenge.
