SALTS Bursaries

The SALTS Bursary Program aims to make our sailing voyages available to as many young people as possible. These bursaries would not be possible without the many donors who support this program.

There are a number of SALTS bursary categories:

General Financial Assistance

These bursaries can offset up to the full cost of a SALTS trip - learn more, apply, and get on board!
