The Michael Hendy Award Endowment Fund

Michael’s passion for interior design was fostered and developed by the program of study he pursued at Dawson College. The Interior Design diploma at Dawson was and continues to be a rigorous, challenging and stimulating program, and it can be very difficult for students to work at the same time. Many talented aspiring designers must support themselves during their course of study, as well as paying for the required materials, which can be prohibitive. We have decided to honour Michael’s memory by setting up an annual award for a student in the program, one who demonstrates both financial need and academic promise, in order to ease the financial burden and reward their efforts.
A $2000 award will be given to a student selected by a panel of Interior Design teachers, who has successfully completed their first year of the program, and it will be presented in Michael’s name at the graduating student vernissage.

To make this possible, we are building up an endowment fund, one that will finance the award for years to come. Please consider contributing to this worthy cause. Your donation is fully tax-deductible and greatly appreciated. We hope you’ll help us keep Michael’s memory alive in this very special way.
