Ottawa – November 8, 2023 – The True Sport Foundation is calling for applications to the Lyle Makosky Values and Ethics in Sport Fund – a fund to assist the study of values and ethical challenges affecting non-professional Canadian sport.
The fund provides annual financial awards to support personal experience-based, exploratory, foundational, applied, and evaluative research to increase the understanding of challenges related to values in, and of, sport in Canada, with the goal of advancing solutions that strengthen the conduct of sport.
“The True Sport Foundation is pleased to offer and promote the Lyle Makosky Values and Ethics in Sport Fund and, in so doing, supporting projects that help us better understand the issues facing Canadian athletes and the sport community,” said Karri Dawson, Executive Director of the True Sport Foundation.
Lyle Makosky, a long-time supporter of values-based sport, established the fund in 2014 to support the work of the True Sport Foundation and the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES).
