The Donovan Gayle Scholarship recognizes Manitoba basketball players who best represent Donovan’s attributes of strength, resilience, positive attitude and perseverance.  The award comes as proceeds from the annual Balling for the Cure basketball tournament, which is held annually in August in Winnipeg.  Since 2014, the cause has raised over $25,000 to support both CancerCare Manitoba and now supports these scholarships.  This award is to be used as financial assistance toward their post-secondary education for the upcoming school year.
