Mary B. Jordan YVR Scholarship for Women in Business

The award was given in recognition of Mary B. Jordan’s impressive 15-year tenure as a member of the YVR Board of Directors and her substantial contributions to the airport community during her tenure as a member of the board. The Mary B. Jordan YVR Scholarship was established as a means of supporting women studying in a business-related field over the course of their Master’s degree at an accredited university in British Columbia.
Having more diversity in the workplace leads to greater innovation, and if people have the proper resources at their disposal, they can maximize their abilities to achieve their full potential. We 100% agree with Mary on this. As part of our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and community participation, YVR annually awards $20,000 to a female or female-identified student who exhibits outstanding academic achievement, and a passion for enhancing diversity, inclusion, and engagement.
