In an effort to grow the EFP Scholarship Program, Tony Bislimi used a conference opportunity in Canada to promote the program there. Invited by the Albanian community of Edmonton, Alberta, Mr. Bislimi spent several weeks in Alberta, Canada. 

During this time, he visited leading universities in the area, such as the University of Alberta, University of Calgary, University of Lethbridge, etc.

The foundation plans establish official contacts with a select list of Canadian universities and offer them the opportunity to join the EFP Scholarship Program.  Canadian universities, just like the US ones, have a lot to offer to deserving Kosovar students.  The EFP Scholarship Program is of mutual benefit for host universities in Canada and for young Kosovars.

Mr. Bislimi's trip to Canada was partly supported by the Kosovo Foundation for Open Society (KFOS).
