Over 130 students received Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards, totaling over $75,000.00 at the Holland ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ Foundation Student Awards Night. Sponsored by Seaman's Beverages Ltd., the ceremony was held on January 29th at The Atlantic Tourism and Hospitality Institute in Charlottetown.
Holland ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards are available to students in good standing who are registered in ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ programs. The awards are based specific criteria determined by the donor and on financial need. Students are permitted to apply for one or more of the available awards by mid-October of the school year. "Out of the 3,000 applications received by Admissions this year, selection committees chose 132 of those students to be recognized" said Sylvia Poirier, Registrar of Holland ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ and emcee for the evening.
"The evening could not have been possible without the generosity of individuals, businesses and organizations who have contributed to the Holland ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ Foundation" said Albert Fogarty, Chairman of the Holland ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ Foundation Board of Governors. "The ¼â½ÐÊÓƵ greatly appreciates their support of our students."
