I made a decision several years ago to give back the money that I received in the form of scholarships and a fellowship while in university. There is one high school in my town and I sponsor two awards each year. The first award is a Leadership Award for which I make a donation to the school and the funds are used to cover some of the expenses incurred by the students who are selected to attend either the provincial or national student leadership conference. Below is a picture of me with the 2009 winners.
At the end of the academic year, I sponsor the Male Student of the Year Award and Teck Cominco sponsors the Female Student of the Year.
