The Language Training Team at FCAPS would like to congratulate Rahel Appiagyei, our Recruitment Specialist at Davis, on receiving the The Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal.
Rahel Appiagyei was chosen to receive this award for her community work as a young leader in the city of Toronto and the GTA, her establishment of the Chantel Dunn Memorial Scholarship at York University Foundations which has awarded its first $1200 to a York University student exhibiting leadership in the Black community, and most recently, for her role as a professor at Sheridan College in the Social Service Worker and Community Development Programs. She was given the award this weekend by The Honourable Jason Kenney, Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism.
“The Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal is a tangible way for Canada to honour Her majesty for her service to this country. At the same time, it serves to honour significant contributions and achievements of Canadians. The Chancellery of Honours, as part of the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General, administers the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal program. To be eligible for this honor, a person must: be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada…and have made a significant contribution to a particular province, territory, region or community within Canada, or an achievement abroad that brings credit to Canada…”
