The Community Foundation of Prince Edward Island is pleased to be administering the Stephen Turner Memorial Fund on behalf of family and friends of Stephen Turner. The fund has been created in the memory of Stephen Turner, a UPEI and Holland College graduate, community leader and friend, whose life was taken far too soon.
The income raised from this fund will go towards helping young Island leaders further themselves through post-secondary education. An Administration Committee, made up of the friends and family of Stephen Turner who established the fund, will make the selection of the annual recipient.
"Stephen was a kind, compassionate and dependable young man and a very bright individual. His consistent good-natured ability to see the best in people and circumstances won him tremendous personal and professional respect" said the Hon. Doug Currie, Ambassador for the fund.
