2017 Scholarship Recipients
"I want to sincerely thank the Federazione Abruzzese Di Hamilton e Distreto for
the generous scholarship!
It truly means so much to
me to as my upbringing in the Abruzzese culture has shaped me in the person I am today and the tradions and values I learned will always be a part of my life. I am excited to be able to continue learning about my Italian culture through taking more Italian courses at McMaster and being a member of the Italian Culture Club."
"Receiving a scholarship from the Federazione Abruzzese means so much to me as a hardworking Canadian-Italian student. It makes me proud to be of Italian descent and in being recognized by the Federaon, I feel as if I am more connected with the Abruzzese community as well as with my Nonno and Nonna who have passed away. I would like to extend my utmost gratitude the Federazione Abruzzese for inviting me into their community and for supporng me through my academic studies. Grazie!"
