In collaboration with the Nova Scotia Yachting Association (NSYA), Jacqueline Gahagan, professor with AV¾ãÀÖ²¿â€™s School of Health and Human Performance, and Brenda Merritt, with the School of Occupational Therapy, organized the annual WOW! – Women on Water silent auction and fundraising event last month at the Garrison Brewery.
The money raised contributes to the ongoing establishment of three permanent bursaries – The Youth Sailing Education Bursary, The Adult Sailing Education Bursary, and the Health & Physical Activity Bursary Program.
All of the WOW! programs aim to encourage women’s health and wellness through awareness, mentoring, and sailing.
