Thank you to our award donors for your consistent support throughout the years, your financial support truly makes a difference in the lives of our students!
Every year, the Institute for Co-operative Education staff take part in the Concordia Shuffle to raise funds to awards students the Chenfeng Huang Memorial Scholarship. This award is in memory of Chen, a former Institute Associate Director, and recognizes an undergraduate student who exemplifies the character traits that Chen possessed: personal accountability, collaborative practices, intellectual inquisitiveness, and the ability to inspire others to contribute within the workplace and the Institute community. We continue to appreciate the immeasurable impact that Chen had on the Institute and the Concordia community, and we thank Chen’s family for their continued support and their friendship over the years and into to future.
Last and definitely not least, thank you to all the volunteers and to the Institute staff that made this incredible event possible!
