Estate of Ninh Huynh and Lanh Lam
In acknowledgement for the welcome and acceptance of their families as refugees by Canada in 1979, Ninh and Lanh Huynh designed and gifted this bursary as a living legacy to their Canadian homeland and future generations of students. This gift is the result of the opportunities that they were able to access to work hard and made sacrifices so that their four children were able to gain and achieve post-secondary learning. It is in this spirit of foresight and commitment that they are offering a bursary that reflects their beliefs, values and early circumstances.
