The scholarship is a monetary sum given to students who demonstrate an academic focus or interest in sustainable tourism and an interest in the preservation of our natural or cultural heritage. The recipients also have to show evidence of high academic achievement, leadership qualities and an entrepreneurial spirit, which Monica exemplifies.
In accompaniment with the scholarship, Monica also received admission and airfare to The Tourism Congress: November 19-21, 2012, Ottawa-Gatineau (http://tiac.travel/tourism_congress.html).
