🌟 Calling all high school graduates in Brant, Haldimand, Six Nations, and Norfolk County! Cornerstone Capital Financial Group is proud to announce our 2nd annual $1,000 Community Scholarship.

Last year's recipient Doug Archer shared the following about his first year attending the University of Guelph “One of my favourite memories of my first year was participating in the College Royal Beef Show. I got the chance to work with, train, and show a beef heifer at College Royal, a campus-wide open house. Getting hands-on experience with a live animal was really cool, and helped reinforce a lot of the content I had learned in my classes. Thank you Cornerstone Capital for helping make this possible! I greatly appreciate your generosity and support of young people like myself as we pursue higher education”
