Generous Scholarship Inspires a Career and a Belief in Others

“As a child I always believed in the kindness of strangers, but with the reality of things going on in my world, I was rudely reminded of how naïve my beliefs were. To be quite honest, I grew up in an environment where people took things. People take and take but rarely give.”

At EducationMatters we believe that education is the cornerstone of our society. In the spirit of reconciliation, recognizing, and thanking our Indigenous friends and neighbours honours their history and builds the conditions of respect for all peoples. EducationMatters board, staff, and volunteers acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Nations, which include the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai. We also acknowledge the Tsuut’ina and Stoney Nakoda First Nations (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations).The City of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta - Districts 5 and 6. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit who have cared for these lands for generations.
