The AFCA Scholarships are presently funded through the various AFCA fundraising efforts. For the long term, AFCA will create the AFCA Scholarship Foundation to establish a self-sustaining fund so AFCA can offer more scholarship assistance to deserving Filipino Canadian accounting students.

The Scholarship Committee also plan to offer scholarships funded by private corporations and individuals, and act as conduit and information source for financial assistance provided by colleges, universities and other funding institutions.
