The Stars Awards & Gala

Thursday, September 17 at the Royal Glenora Club

The Stars Awards & Gala is an annual celebration of the transformative impact of affordable housing and the remarkable achievements of Civida residents.

Bringing together community leaders, partners, supporters, and residents, the event shines a spotlight on the people, stories, and successes that demonstrate how stable housing creates opportunity, strengthens communities, and helps individuals and families thrive. Through inspiring stories, community recognition, and shared celebration, the Stars Awards & Gala highlights the lasting impact of affordable housing across Edmonton.

Stars Awards Scholarships

Students entering or currently enrolled in post-secondary education may apply for a Stars Awards Scholarship if they live in a Civida community or are part of a household receiving rent assistance through Civida.

Established in 2017, the Stars Awards Scholarships recognize the determination, resilience, and potential of students pursuing their educational goals. Scholarships of up to $5,000 help make tuition, books, supplies, and other education-related expenses more attainable.

More than financial support, the scholarships are an investment in future leaders, changemakers, and community builders. By helping students pursue post-secondary education, the Stars Awards Scholarships open doors to opportunity and demonstrate the life-changing impact of housing stability and community support.
