Homestarts has contributed over $48,000 to the Co-operative Diversity Scholarship program.  The Co-operative Diversity Scholarship program recognizes people living in housing co-ops who are actively promoting diversity through work within their community and provides a financial bursary towards their post-secondary education.

​

The program funds the diversity scholarship programs of the CHFT and Golden Horseshoe, Peel Halton and Central Ontario (COCHF) and South Eastern Ontario (CHASEO) co-operative housing federations.
