Hannah Lank was recently awarded the prestigious 2015 Loran Scholarship.

Every year, the Loran Scholars Foundation invests in exceptional young Canadians who demonstrate character, service and leadership. They look for qualities like personal integrity and character; commitment to service and an entrepreneurial spirit; breadth in academic and extra-curricular interests; strongly developed inner-directedness; and outstanding overall potential for leadership. Through the country’s most rigorous and personalized selection process they select the top 30 of approximately 3,800 applicants as Loran Scholars.

Each Loran Scholar receives an award valued at up to $100,000 for their undergraduate studies. For four years, they receive the mentorship, financial independence and opportunities to seek out how they can most effectively contribute to society. Graduating scholars join a network of nearly 400 alumni who support each other as they take on leadership responsibilities beyond their years in business, public policy, medicine, law, academia, the arts and many other disciplines.

Hannah has maintained an 99% average in Kelvin’s International Baccalaureate Program (IB) and feels that community service, and a commitment to becoming involved, has been an important part of her high school experience.  She is thankful for the excellent teachers and wonderful opportunities that she has been given.

Hannah attended Brock Corydon’s Hebrew Bilingual program and the Gray Academy for Grades 7 & 8.  She is the daughter of Barry and Luanne Lank.
