Stephen LeBlanc Memorial Award Fund

For Automotive Service and Repair Students at NSCC Burridge Campus

About

Stephen LeBlanc was an inspiring young man who knew what his goal in life was and worked hard to achieve it. He struggled throughout school but with encouragement from family, friends and teachers he graduated from NSCC (Burridge) in 2013 with his Auto Service and Repair Certificate. As a young teen, Stephen developed a passion for cars, especially high-end vehicles. He strived to know everything about them. He entered his first car in show and shines and enjoyed being part of the auto scene. Stephen’s vision was to become a high-end mechanic, working on the very cars that he was so passionate about. His persistence, interest and eagerness found him his dream job at Coffill’s Auto Repair LTD in Canning. They immediately recognized in Stephen the same interest and enthusiasm that they had for their cars and job. They knew he was the right man to join their crew. It is hoped that this Award will capture Stephen’s spirit by supporting a NSCC (Burridge Campus) student who exemplifies the same passion, energy and enthusiasm for automobiles.
