Vincentian student Jason Gonsalves is the fifth local recipient of a bursary $5000 to The Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning in Toronto Canada, a bursary which was set up in the name of Doris Tallon, otherwise known as the first lady of Humber college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning in Toronto Canada decided to honor Tallon\u2019s memory by setting up a bursary fund for Caribbean students in her name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bursary is controlled locally by the Humber College Alumni Association. Last Monday, August 14th, President of the Humber College Alumni Association Keith Boyea and Committee Member Willis Williams, in the presence of Michelle Gonsalves, Jason\u2019s mother, handed over the cheque to Jason at the Joshua Center in Arnos Vale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Boyea said, \u201cDoris was like a mother to a number of us when we were at the school; she had a lot of love for Vincentians and one thing she wanted to do was make sure that we were all right\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Committee Member Williams described the bursary as, \u201csomething we are doing just to show support and chart the course forward for local students\u201d, He added, \u201cWe all benefitted from Humber College and we want to pass on some of that special \u201cTallon love and goodness\u201d to future generations\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Accepting the cheque, Jason said that he was extremely grateful to the committee for the assistance and promised to keep in touch with reports on his progress. The bursary is intended for use on things related to school including books\u201d. Jason plans to pursue studies in Finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the recipient, Jason Gonsalves, never met the first lady of Humber College, Doris Tallon, thanks to the bursary, he will always remember her name.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
