Madison Peter’s:, “This bursary was a very generous donation that supported my academic endeavors throughout my naturopathic medical education. The program is expensive, so this bursary helped reduce some of the financial strain. I am very grateful for the financial support and to be recognized for my contributions to the community.”

Jennifer Kerr’s:, “This bursary was very special to receive because of all the great work the Plant a Seed Foundation does. It also came at a time in my schooling where I was lacking confidence and direction and gave me the motivation I was craving to continue my studies. I am forever grateful for every little piece of encouragement I received from the Plant a Seed team!”

Jenna Dhillon’s: “The bursary provided significant financial support during my Doctor of Naturopathy degree. It allowed me to continue to focus on my academics, community, and personal interests without the stress of financial burdens. As a graduate-level student, it can be hard to continue studies without a steady income supporting the journey, which is why bursaries like this one are so meaningful. This opportunity also allowed me to learn more about the Plant a Seed and See What Grows Foundation, providing me with further insight into a wonderful foundation in my home province of BC. I am forever grateful for the support I received and believe it contributed to my success as a naturopathic student!”
