The Speak Up Scholarship encourages today’s youth to be vocal and active with their community, engaging in meaningful and constructive dialogue. Regarding financing my education with this scholarship, I am currently a student in a Québec post-secondary educational institution called a CÉGEP. I am set to graduate from John Abbott College in May of 2025.
Iman Zakaria is a Senior and attends Health Careers High School. By receiving this scholarship, she is one step closer to achieving her goals of attending college and becoming a Pediatric Emergency Physician. Since she was five, she has wanted to attend college and become a doctor. Iman is blessed and honored to have support from her family and friends. However, achieving her goals will create a financial burden for her family. Iman's father recently returned to school to become a nurse serving his community.
By receiving this scholarship, Iman can achieve her dreams of becoming a pediatrician and focus on her academics without worrying about how to pay for college.
