Please share what the Bursary program has meant for you so far in your post-secondary journey (mentorship, financial aid, career assistance)
The bursary program holds immense significance for me. The mentorship sessions provide me with invaluable insight into my daily life. Applying the knowledge gained from these sessions has imbued me with an increase in determination and self-confidence. I wholeheartedly believe that through my active participation in the mentorship sessions, I'll gradually become the person I have always aspired to be.

I'm profoundly grateful to have been matched with someone who has made such a significant impact on the world. I've long held aspirations of contributing to the positive development of society. Thus, receiving a bursary from Ray Williams is a tremendous honor. Influential figures like him serve as an inspiration for individuals seeking to achieve their ambitions. For this reason, I express my heartfelt gratitude to him for his role in providing me with the opportunity to actively pursue my academic aspirations.
