Beginning in April 2007, the Government of British Columbia will invest $1,000 into the BC Children's Education Fund for each new child born or adopted in B.C. The funding is to help the province's young people with post-secondary skills development.
Eligible beneficiaries will simply apply for the grant (estimated to be around $2,200 based on current investment returns) at the time they enter a qualifying post-secondary institution as long as they are 26 or younger.
