The Helmut Braun
memorial fund was established in 2001 by CCBR and Waterloo
Regional Self Help in memory of Helmut Braun, a local social
activist, community researcher and an advocate for the rights of
people with mental health and other life struggles. The fund
contributes to the cost of post-secondary education for a student
pursuing studies in areas of social justice, peace and conflict
resolution, community development, cross-cultural issues, and
community research and social change. Amanda MacOwan is this year's winner of the Helmut Braun Scholarship Award. Amanda was selected by the Centre's Scholarship award committee from among 19 other well-deserving applicants. The final decision was difficult. Amanda is working towards her four-year honours degree in Renison University' College's Social Development Studies (SDS) program at the University of Waterloo. Her family background and experiences only contribute more to her passion for social justice in general and especially in the field of mental health.
