First Roy Scott Bursary recipient

Monica Sanh, a graduating student at CW Jeffrys Collegiate Institute, is the first recipient of Local 112’s Roy Scott Memorial Bursary. Local 112 established the annual bursary to honour the memory of Local 112 member Roy Scott who was the first person of colour appointed to the UAW-Canada staff. The bursary is awarded each year to a graduating student at CW Jeffrys, a high school in the Jane-Finch neighbourhood a few blocks from the union hall. The $1000 bursary was presented by Financial Secretary Sherry Hillman at the Graduation Ceremony June 25th. Monica was selected to receive the bursary on the basis of the essay she wrote on social justice and her activism in her school and community.
