Two undergrads supported by Fondation Desjardins

Two Concordia undergraduate students have received support from the Caisse populaire Desjardins de Notre-Dame-de-Grâce and the Fondation Desjardins.

Samantha Graham, a computer science major in the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science, and philosophy student Emily Freeman-Lavoie, from the Faculty of Arts and Science, were each awarded $1,250 bursaries.

Graham and Freeman-Lavoie’s applications were selected by Fondation Desjardins from among 1,357 applicants.

This year, Fondation Desjardins granted approximately 200 awards as part of its program to encourage youth to pursue tertiary education.

The Fondation Desjardins bursaries were presented on October 20.
