Jean Augustine’s dedication to community, social justice, education
has continued in the inaugural Jean Augustine Award which has created two Jean
Augustine Awards, a Humber College Scholarship and a LAMP Award.
Humber’s mission is
to develop broadly educated, highly skilled and adoptable citizens who
significantly contribute to the educational, economic, and social development
of their communities. I believe too, that this too is Jean Augustine’s mission.
She has worked tirelessly throughout her career to create opportunities for
individuals and in turn has contributed to the educational, economic and social
development of our country. Humber is honoured to support a scholarship in Jean’s
name as it will aid others to continue on her legacy.She recognizes that supporting people in our communities
that may not traditionally access education and work is an important part of
achieving this mission.
Humber does this by working in partnership with
schools, community agencies and government to offer a broad range of programs and
services to assist youth, aboriginal peoples, newcomers, unemployed individuals
and others enter post-secondary education, apprenticeships and meaningful work opportunities.
