Emily volunteered for Centennial Infant and Child Centre's preschool program, assisting teachers and supporting youth with developmental challenges. Her long-time passion and interest in children's mental health was sparked through the Youth Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) that she took part in at TFS, through which she first learned about Centennial. This September, Emily is attending University College London to study for her master of science degree in early child development and clinical applications. She is very excited and grateful that she will be continuing her studies in child psychology, and she hopes to support future generations of children on their mental health journeys. Megan Chong '19 Megan Chong recently graduated from the Rotman Commerce program at the University of Toronto. In September, she started her full-time job at Labatt Breweries of Canada, as a management trainee! Lucia Stafford '16 Lucia Stafford, a world-class middle- distance runner, successfully defended her Canadian championship title this past July. She took the 1500m title in 4:09.52 with an incredible 62-second final lap. Next, Lucia is preparing for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, and no matter the outcome, she will continue to make TFS proud! Selina and Masha Chekhter '20 Selina and Masha Chekhter were both admitted into law school this year. It has been a dream come true for them to begin their legal journeys together. Due to her high academic standing at TFS, Masha was able to graduate from McGill University a year early with a bachelor of arts in international development.
