Mary B. Jordan YVR Scholarship for Women in Business

In recognition of former Chair of the YVR Board of Directors Mary B. Jordan’s impressive 15-year tenure as a board member, and her significant contributions to the airport community, YVR established the Mary B. Jordan YVR Scholarship to support women pursuing a Master's degree in a business-related field in British Columbia.

We share Mary’s belief that greater diversity in the workplace drives innovation and providing people with proper resources allows them to reach their full potential. Each year, YVR will award $20,000 to a student who identifies as a woman and demonstrates outstanding academic achievement, and a passion for diversity, inclusion and community participation.
