Fry Family Foundation Ralph Vincent Memorial Business Scholarship, 2007
Fry Family Foundation Ralph Vincent Memorial Business Scholarship, 2007
In the 2007/2008 academic year, I was graciously awarded the Ralph Vincent Memorial Business Scholarship. Receiving this scholarship allowed me to focus on my studies, without worrying about incurring additional student loans.
While this award helped me tremendously in the near term, its impact in the long term and to the big picture of my perspective was even greater. Receiving the award, at an impressionable age, helped me build confidence and encouraged me to strive for more. It was a driver in pushing me to attend the Harlow campus in the winter semester of 2010, an experience that changed my worldview entirely.
I have since built a strong career and have a great family in Calgary, Alberta. Looking back, I'm filled with appreciation for the generosity and the vision of the Fry Family for investing in the community. I would like to say thank you once more and wish you all the best.
