• Brazosport College

   

  

   

  In 2018, MEGlobal Americas Inc. made a $1 million contribution to the Brazosport College Foundation to support students seeking to enroll in dual-credit courses at Brazosport College in Lake Jackson, Texas, USA. The contribution builds on MEGlobal’s commitment to sustainability and community success, supporting the educational dreams of local students and the workforce of tomorrow.

   

  As a result of this investment, up to approximately 160 Brazosport Independent School District students per year will be able to enroll in dual-credit courses each academic year at Brazosport College, beginning in 2020.
  This gift from MEGlobal provides a sustainable stream of scholarship funds for perpetuity – and also provides an opportunity and the ability for the endowment to grow.

  The North West Mounted Police Fort Saskatchewan

   

  

   

  Putting the “Fort” in Fort Saskatchewan
  The North West Mounted Police Fort Saskatchewan was in operation on the banks of the North Saskatchewan River from 1875 to 1885. Although the original Fort was taken down, the community’s name “stuck” throughout history, and it seemed to be a missing piece in Fort Saskatchewan’s identity. The City of Fort Saskatchewan struck a plan to restore a representation of the Fort and in 2011, MEGlobal made a multi-year funding commitment to the project that has become a source of local pride as well as wider tourist attraction. Today, the Fort Heritage Precinct is a formidable site, providing those who visit with an exciting link to a proud and colourful history. http://www.fortsask.ca/residents/culture/heritage
