Ann McQuaid Memorial Endowment Scholarship |
| Description |
This scholarship was established in memory of Ann McQuaid, a faculty member in the College and Career Preparation program at the College of New Caledonia. Ann believed in the value of education and that post-secondary education should be available to all. She had a strong commitment to those students particularly women, who returned as adults to finish high school completion courses and continue to post-secondary education. Ann felt that post-secondary education was the key to independence. This scholarship was established by friends, colleagues, former students, and her family to ensure that Ann's dedication to students lives on in her name. |
