I would like to begin by thanking you for choosing me to be a recipient of the 2015 UFCW Canada – BDM Scholarship. Deciding to go back to school four years after graduating university was a very difficult and challenging decision for me. I am currently enrolled at Georgian College in the Power Engineering Program and I am obtaining my 4th class TSSA Engineering qualification. I have been a member of Local 12R24 and have worked at The Beer Store for eight years. I would like to thank you once again for this amazing award.
