About This Opportunity

One award, valued at $5,000, will be provided annually to a Black or Indigenous undergraduate student entering Year One of any program in the School of Accounting and Finance. For the purpose of this award, an Indigenous person is one who is a citizen or member of a First Nations community (Status/Non-Status), Métis or Inuit. Selection will be based on extracurricular involvement and/or participation in volunteer leadership activities. This fund is made possible by a donation from Patricia O'Malley (LLD '16) and Ron Hikel. Both Ronald and Patricia believe that increasing the capacity of Black and Indigenous students to become leaders in the financial management of their communities will provide long-term benefit to those communities and to society as a whole.
