| Polytechnic – Saskatoon Campus | Jessica Lukan, Father: Alfred Lukan from Debden Council 3456 Testimonial It is with extreme gratefulness that I accept this award from the Saskatchewan Knights of Columbus. This award helps me financially. It takes away some of the financial stress of buying textbooks, paying for parking and so much more which in turn allows me to focus more on my studies. Completing this degree is very important to me. With a degree in nursing I hope to become a wound care nurse. I am very honored and humbled to have been chosen for this award. Thank you, Jessica Lukan |

| Polytechnic – Regina Campus | Mackinlee Brisbin, Grandfather: Ron Pigott (Deceased) from Moose Jaw Council 9760 Testimonial Dear Saskatchewan Knights of Columbus, As a recipient of the 2022 Saskatchewan Knights of Columbus Charitable Foundation Award, I wanted to thank you for funding this scholarship. I am a first-year Psychiatric Nursing Student at Saskatchewan Polytechnic and am anticipated to graduate in December 2024. My goal is to become a Psychiatric Nurse in Dementia Care and Geriatrics. I am planning on obtaining a position as a caregiver to help fund my education. Thanks to this scholarship, I can reduce my work schedule and focus more on my studies. My grandfather, Ronald Pigott, was a Knights of Columbus in Moose Jaw and I hope he would be extremely proud of the achievements I have accomplished and proud regarding my going back to school for nursing. Thank you again for your investment at Saskatchewan Polytechnic and students like me. I am very grateful for this opportunity and your support for students in your community. Sincerely, Mackinlee Brisbin |
