A lucky Saint John student is the winner of a $750 dollar scholarship for taking part in the New Brunswick Securities Commission Financial Fitness Challenge.
Rosalinda Kan of Saint John High School successfully completed the challenge online, and was entered to win the scholarship.
Education Coordinator with NBSC Marissa Irgnanesi tells CHSJ News, the scholarship was handed out to one student in each province at random to successful candidates.
Nearly 700 students in New Brunswick took part in the annual event, and Irgnanesi says more than 90 per cent of students who took part say they knew more about budgeting and saving money after the exercise.
