Recognizing the spirit of "paying it forward" for Bachelor of Commerce students

The Lowen’s Entrepreneurial Management Bursary assists students with financial need enrolled in the Bachelor of Commerce in Entrepreneurial Management program and who best describe how an act of kindness, towards themselves or someone else, has affected their own life in a positive way.

The Lowen’s Entrepreneurial Management Bursary is an MBA Alumnus Chad Zelensky’s way of “paying it forward” to those who have made efforts to create positive change in their lives and work, in their communities or on the global stage. During his residency at Royal Roads, Chad found himself in need of support and a fellow student helped him. After graduating, Chad, a pharmacist and father, developed a successful natural diaper rash balm and established the company inspired by and named for his daughter Lowen. The Lowen’s Entrepreneurial Management Bursary reflects the entrepreneurial spirit behind his family-owned and operated skincare company.
