Ted Rogers Legacy Scholarship recipient wants to be a ‘force for good’

Three years ago, Folasewa (Sewa) Ofurune and her family left the vibrant city of Lagos, Nigeria, and settled in the quiet, close-knit town of Sussex, New Brunswick. The transition was a significant change – Lagos, home to over 22 million people, is a world away from the pastoral New Brunswick farming town – but for Ofurune, the move has opened doors of unimaginable opportunity.


In the summer of 2023, she attended Shad Canada’s STEAM camp at the University of Prince Edward Island, where she and her peers took part in a design challenge to reimagine living spaces in Canada. The project focused on increasing sustainability, accessibility and community building, with Ofurune’s group proposing innovative solutions for people living with Parkinson’s disease.

“It was my first exposure to real-world problem-solving, and it was incredibly inspiring,” she said.
