For 2010/11 RAASAP provided 3 awards: one $2,000 Leadership Award and two $1,500 Leadership Bursaries. These awards provide students with financial assistance and help to promote a learning environment which includes participation in volunteer and leadership opportunities.
Help us build our alumni-sponsored fund. In 2010/11 alumni gave $4,600 to support our initiative. Thank you! As our fund grows, we will provide more awards to more students. Beginning in the 2011 fiscal year, Alumni have more options for contributing to RAASAP. Alumni who become members of the university have the choice of directing their membership gift to 1) RAASAP and the Alumni Fund, 2) RAASAP and the Redeemer Fund, or 3) the Redeemer Fund. Options 1 and 2 allow us to build the RAASAP fund more quickly.
Sarah Taekema '11, Recipient of the Alumni Leadership Award 2010/11
A gift such as the Alumni Leadership Award is an incredible blessing and I am immensely grateful to have received it. I do not have to worry about how I am going to afford my education in the midst of all the busyness, and being spared that worry allows me to focus on my schooling and to focus on learning all I can about being an effective teacher. Thank you again for your generosity and may you be as richly blessed as I have for it!
