Powering Future Leaders
Essex Power Corporation is committed to supporting and recognizing youth within our community. Eight local recipients recently received the Powering Future Leaders Bursary.
This bursary program was awarded to Grade 12 graduating students that plan to pursue post secondary education in the areas of study that support and build the utility industry (i.e. Powerline Technician, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) avenues of study).
