Announcing the Winner of the 2018 MLD Scholastic Scholarship

    CALGARY, AB, November 07, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- It is with great pleasure that we announce that this year's MLD scholarship for $3000 has been awarded to Abigail Morris, she is a fourth year student in Neuroscience and Mental Health at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario.

There were over 152 applicants across the US and Canada that applied for the MLD scholarship, with the final 20 who were shortlisted having exceptional grades, extracurricular commitments, leadership experiences and motivating stories of overcoming hardships and adversities.

Ms. Morris, recipient of the award stated "This scholarship will help support me through my last semester of university as I complete my honours degree in Neuroscience and Mental Health. I will strive to use my education to make a difference in the world by bringing awareness and help to people who are suffering or have been affected by mental illness at any point in their lives."

Chad Larson of MLD Wealth Management co-founder of the scholarship noted that this scholarship was created because "We believe that by supporting the development of students who possess vision, drive, compassion and a thirst for knowledge, we can improve society and drive industry. Selecting Abigail as the winner out of the pool applicants was incredibly difficult because there were so many highly qualified and exemplary students, but he showed that despite adversities, he could set clear goals, accomplish them, and lift up others while in the process."

The MLD Annual Scholastic Scholarship is about celebrating and supporting such students with these attributes. We commend all the amazing applicants that applied and wish all of them the best in their academic endeavours and life pursuits.
