Canadian Merit Scholarship Foundation - The Loran Award
Nada Ristich & 2006 BMO Loran Scholar, Kyla BrophyCMSF is grateful for the support of its many corporate donors, who have supported the vision we have to select and support Canada’s future leaders. One sustaining donor that deserves special recognition is BMO Financial Group. Since 1992, BMO Financial Group has underwritten national scholarships for outstanding students across Canada. In 1992, BMO Financial Group became the second annual sustaining donor to CMSF. This significant investment enabled the CMSF university program to expand beyond Ontario. In the words of Bob Cluett, founder of CMSF, “BMO is one of three partners that have been pre-eminent in terms of CMSF’s success.”

CMSF is not only grateful for BMO Financial’s support for the last 15 years, but we are also grateful for the personal support of Nada Ristich, Senior Manager of Corporate Donations (pictured at left with 2006 BMO Loran Scholar, Kyla Brophy). Ms. Ristich has interviewed at the regional level in Toronto and chaired national interview committees. Since 2002, she has also hosted our national selections at BMO’s Institute for Learning. Thank you Ms. Ristich and thank you BMO Financial Group!
