We are pleased to recognize our first recipient in 2019 from the Business Administration program:
Rebecca Pleasance
As times have changed, the Vernon Women in Business executive collectively decided to change our focus and acknowledge women in a different way. Effective in 2019, we collaborated with the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce to support students at Okanagan College through financial aid and awards. Our first silent auction was held at the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce Business Awards Gala and raised funds for one award in 2019 and an additional two awards for 2020.
We are grateful for all the donors who helped make this possible. We hope you continue to donate to our cause in support of women completing their studies to go on to become successful business women in our community. We strive to support these future business women as this will benefit everyone in the future. Check back here as our list of recipients continues to grow over the years.
