Peter Bugden Scholarship, inaugurated

The Peter Bugden Scholarship was inaugurated on September 23rd 2009 at the University of San Carlos in Cebu.

The Peter Bugden Scholarship is established by the Catholic Education Office and the Primary and Secondary Schools of the Diocese of Sandhurst in acknowledgement of the dedicated career of Peter Bugden as a Diocesan Leader and wise steward of Finance, Facilities and Resources. Peter served Sandhurst parishes and schools over a period of 26 years with integrity, skill and faith-filled commitment.

This Scholarship is established to provide an opportunity for a Filipino student to complete a Degree in Business at the University of San Carlos. It is intended to support a student who is financially deprived and who would not otherwise have this opportunity. The Scholarship will be administered by the University of San Carlos. It will be reviewed at five yearly intervals by Catholic Education Sandhurst and the University.
