The Nova Scotia Teachers College Foundation was established by an Act of Legislation (Bill 35) which was given Royal Assent on December 3, 1998.
The first Board of Directors was appointed in May 2000.
The Nova Scotia Teachers College Foundation was established to administer the scholarships and awards of the former Nova Scotia Teachers College. For 143 years the College prepared teachers for the province’s schools. Many people donated to the scholarship and award funds of the Teachers College to assist student teachers. The Nova Scotia Teachers College Foundation, through its awards, is helping to preserve the memory of the College and honour some of those who contributed to its success.
