The Alouettes Alumni Association maintains the tradition by being involved in the community and helping young athletes. In 2008 the Association joined forces with FIDA (Fonds d’Investissements et de Développements Athlétique) and is proud to offer financial assistance to this organization that awards bursaries to young students who distinguish themselves by their academic performance, their athletic potential and personality, to realize their full potential and pursue their personal development. In 2009, the Tony Proudfoot Impact Award was created and this trophy is now awarded annually to a member who stands out for its contribution to the Association, football in general and his community. In 2011, the Association donated the proceeds of its annual golf tournament to FAEQ (Fondation de l’Athlète d’Excellence du Québec) whose mission is to provide financial assistance and support for student-athletes in their pursuit of excellence and contribute to the promotion of role models in Quebec society. In recent years, the Alouettes Alumni Association has awarded more than 20 bursaries for a total of nearly $ 50 000 for young athletes who distinguish themselves in school.
