Awards, Scholarships, and Literacy Grants

The Reading Council of Greater Winnipeg is proud to support literacy throughout Manitoba. As part of our outreach initiatives, we support members through awards and literacy grants, and we provide scholarships to teacher candidates who demonstrate excellence. 

RCGW Awards
Our annual awards program recognizes those who have made valuable contributions to literacy in our province. With teachers going above and beyond to teach their students safely during the pandemic, we believe there is no better year to nominate deserving teachers. Nominations are due April 9, 2021.
