The Ruth Northcott Education Fund was established in 1970 in memory of Ruth Northcott. The fund helps to support the annual Ruth Northcott Memorial Lecture and the following education-related purposes:

The improvement and extension of the publications of the Society
The improvement and extension of the library and visual aids of the Society for the benefit of the members of the Society and the many publics served by the Society
The fostering of communication and interchange among the members of the Society, thus enhancing members' skills and abilities
Assistance in providing accommodation for the Society's education and public outreach undertakings
Such other purposes as would generally fall within Professor Northcott's wish to further the study of, and appreciation for, astronomy in Canada by all Canadians.
