Given this year in memory of
Derek Brown
This year we have three deserving young people to share with you.
Congratulations to
Ian Blair, Macy Gates, Marianna MacIsaac
Concrete Atlantic is pleased to announce the recipients of our 2025 scholarship awards. After a competitive selection process, we are proud to recognize three outstanding students for their academic excellence, community involvement, and future aspirations.
This year’s recipients were selected based on a combination of academic performance, extra curricular involvement, community and charitable engagement, and a personal essay submitted as part of the application process. With a large number of exceptional candidates, the judging process was both rewarding and challenging.
We extend our heartfelt appreciation to our volunteer judging committee for dedicating their time and effort to review the many deserving applications.
Once again, we congratulate Ian, Macy, and Marianna on their achievements. Concrete Atlantic also wishes to thank all of this year's applicants and extend our best wishes for their future success.
Great Job!
