The endowment will be used to o support the creation of a bursary, which will be awarded to full-time students who are embarking on their first postsecondary program and who have demonstrated perseverance in overcoming personal challenges. “These funds will help eliminate financial barriers and ensure that more students can continue to access postsecondary education, participating in job-ready education, training, and applied research opportunities while attending RDP,” said RDP VP Development and Partnerships Patrick Machacek.
