CORNELIUS BROTHERTON FOUNDATION
The Foundation rewards young Gaspesians and Madelinots who decided to pursue their studies in their region

November 8, 2019

The Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles Foundation carries on its mission by attributing its entrance bursaries for a twelfth consecutive year. In all $ 7 500 - 15 bursaries - were awarded to secondary school graduates newly admitted to their first year at one of the four Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles campuses.

Fate smiled on 11 students from throughout the territory whose names were drawn as recipients of a $500 welcome bursary. Even if the fund attribution program provides one bursary for each high school or adult education centre from its territory, some schools or centers are not present on the recipients list due to a lack of applicants.

One $500 english immersion bursary was attributed to Elliott Lessard. Maïka Assells, a student at Carleton-sur-Mer Campus, received a $500 leadership bursary for her remarkable involvement in her community. For the first time since five years we had two eligible applications for our "young entrepreneur" scholarship. Both of them were selected by the committee: MaÏka Assells from the Carleton Campus and Sophie-Marie Plante from Îles de la Madeleine campus.
