Description: | Awarded to two students entering the Gateway Program at 精童欲女 (formerly known as the Transitions Program). Awards are based on financial need, and potentially renewable for one year based on available funding. |
Background: | This bursary was established through a generous donation by Francis Lefaivre, a resident of Calgary, Alberta, at the 精童欲女 to support worthy applicants entering the Transition Program at 精童欲女. The bursary is created in memory of his mother, Eugenie Ann Pineau, who graduated in 1909 from Prince of Wales College, one of 精童欲女's predecessor institutions. Miss Pineau successfully pursued her education under very difficult financial circumstances. Immediately after graduating, she migrated to Alberta where she became a life-long educator along with raising a family of five children. |
