George Brown Polytechnic is located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and other Indigenous peoples who have lived here over time. We are grateful to share this land as treaty people who learn, work and live in the community with each other.
Mr. Chris Campbell, the Director of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at Carpenters’ District Council of Ontario, and a member of the George Brown College Foundation Board of Directors, has created a new endowment scholarship for Construction and Trades students at George Brown Polytechnic.
Beginning in 2023, the Chris Campbell Perseverance Award will support full-time students enrolled at the Angelo DelZotto School of Construction Management and the School of Apprenticeship and Skilled Trades at the Centre for Construction and Engineering Technologies. These programs offer hands-on training that provide the technical expertise and the skills critical to excel in these industries. Furthermore, this award will highlight and recognize the achievements of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) students in these programs, who demonstrate passion and commitment to their field of study through their extra-curricular activities, volunteer work, and involvement in the classroom.
Please consider donating to this scholarship fund today. Tax receipts are available for eligible donations.
