Flow celebrates Graduates of Scholarship Program -Company invested over $500K in Education in Turks & Caicos
#PROVIDENCIALES, TURKS AND CAICOS, July 1, 2020 – Flow 2015 Scholarship Awardees, Shawn Gardiner and Vincent Zamora are now graduates from the British West Indies Collegiate Year 11 program. They are the final students who benefited from Flow’s scholarship program which has invested more than $500,000 in educating students since its inception in 2008.
Shawn and Vincent who both topped the 2015 Grade Six Achievement Test were awarded full five (5) year scholarships to the schools of their choice. Though faced with the challenges of finishing their studies online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both have successfully graduated.
Flow TCI Country Manager, Joanne Missick said “At Flow, we have always been proud to support education and the youth in the TCI. Since the inception of the program in 2008, we have seen exceptional performances from all of the scholarship recipients as they pursue their goals of higher learning. Shawn and Vincent have continued that tradition and the entire Flow family congratulates them on the successful completion of their respective programs.”
She added, “I am also very pleased with the number of parents and students who took advantage of the free access to our educational portal, Flow Study. I know the last few months have been exceptionally challenging for parents, teachers and students and we are happy to have been able help ease that burden by providing this convenient online access to enable our students to continue to study especially those studying for their upcoming CAPE & CSEC examinations. I know that overcoming these challenges has made them even stronger and more disciplined students and that they will go on to achieve success in their chosen fields and become assets to the TCI.
