Ajax, ON – Sutton Group – Heritage Realty Inc.* is helping to make dreams come true by bringing higher education within reach. On June 6, 2016, four students received a total of $5,000 through the new Sutton Heritage Scholarship Fund. This fund is made possible thanks to the personal contributions of Broker of Record Rosalind Menary and her husband Ron (pictured right with recipient Cassaundra Sloan), as well as REALTORS® who donate a portion of their commissions.
“At Sutton Group – Heritage Realty, we value giving back to the community and we are honoured to be able to help four amazing students further their education,” says Lindsay Barlow, Assistant Manager at the Ajax office.
These are the recipients of the Sutton Heritage Scholarship for 2016:
$2,000 recipient: Cassaundra Sloan, who is going into Communications and Digital Media Studies at UOIT,
$1,000 recipient: Billie Stefan, who has been accepted into the Film and Television Production Program at Humber College,
$1,000 recipient: Josh Kravitz, who has been accepted in to the Honours Bachelor of Business Administration at Laurier University (Waterloo Campus),
$1,000 recipient: Nate Parkinson, who is attending Faithway Baptist College.
“We launched the Sutton Heritage Scholarship Fund earlier this year and had many applicants,” notes Lindsay. “Next year will be our 25th year in business. To celebrate, our hope is to be able to double the awards.”
The idea for the scholarship originated with Rosalind Menary and her husband Ron. With their granddaughter heading to university in the fall, they saw firsthand the high cost of post-secondary education and felt that scholarships would give hardworking students the chance to reach their goals.
