“As Director of the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program, I have had the distinct privilege of welcoming over 100 Mastercard Foundation Scholars to McGill and to support their academic pursuits. It has been an amazing opportunity to work hand in hand with the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program team to help our scholars travel to Canada and be part of their learning journey at McGill through to graduation. I admire the resilience of our scholars in seeking new experiences to shape their future, and grateful to have had an opportunity to contribute to their success as leaders who will undoubtedly inspire change and positive transformation in their communities.”
