Georgian College students Peter Wilson, Erika Kooi and Kristen Grant are pictured with Tom Ambeau Sr., chairperson of Georgian’s Power of Education campaign, Frank Berdan, vice-president of Northern Operations for BMO, Dr. Cassandra Thompson, dean, Georgian College Health Science program, and Brian Tamblyn, president and CEO, Georgian College.

Georgian College students recently took a break from their studies to celebrate a $170,000 donation to Georgian’s Power of Education campaign from BMO Financial Group.

The money will go towards a future expansion of the health sciences program at Georgian College, where plans to raise enough money to build a new health sciences building are underway.
