A memorial gift may be made in honour of any deceased person. Memorial Gifts are an opportunity to honour the life of a loved one. Other Memorial Gifts may be made to honour an anniversary, a birthday, an achievement or honour received, or a retirement.

Funds are to be used as grants to support worthy Loyalists projects. When contributing to the memorial fund, please indicate the name and address of the person to be notified. In addition to acknowledging your gift, we also inform the bereaved of your thoughtfulness.

The UELAC Scholarship is an available award to Masters and PhD students who are undertaking relevant research in historical Loyalist Studies. The recipient’s research should further Canada's understanding of the Loyalists and our appreciation of their, or their immediate descendants, influence on Canada. The award is for $2,500 per year and will be provided for each of two years for Masters and three years for PhD student.

The purpose of our branch projects is to preserve and promote our Loyalist Canadian history and heritage, with an objective of identification of buildings of the era, family genealogies, stories, military records, cemeteries, monuments, artifacts, correspondence, etc. Once identified, our objective is to protect them and then help interested people locate them for research or personal interest.
