Family creates award to honour a teacher who transformed lives <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

For Savitri Ahuja, educating others was much more than a personal passion and rewarding career. Over the many decades she practised in her birth country of India and adopted country of Canada, teaching was a compassionate act of service to humanity, her way to empower others to improve their circumstances and achieve their dreams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping 'B' students succeed<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to giving to support higher education, Melody Pal (BA '85) says its time to be more inclusive of 'B' students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most financial awards offered by universities and colleges are open to applicants who have a strong academic record, but Melody believes other students shouldn't be left out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shaping your retirement future<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

For most people, retirement is tied to a magic age. We often hear \u2018when I reach age 65, I want to retire\u2019. For others it could be age 55, 60, or 70. Some may never plan to retire until they are forced to, often by health, or other circumstances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does retirement mean to you? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
