Congratulations to Gurneet Chauhan for winning UFCW Canada’s BDM Scholarship.
Worth $1,000, the scholarship is open to active members, their spouse or children enrolled in full-time studies at a Canadian post-secondary institution.
“I am excited – it means a lot to me because I work to pay my tuition,” said Chauhan, a cashier at Sheriff’s No Frills and a student at York University.
Awarded annually to 18 recipients, the scholarship honours three past leaders of our union: William Beggs, Fred Dowling, and Roméo Mathieu.
“The union is helping me with work and now with my tuition--I am thankful for all their efforts.”
