NGS Super scholarship for CUFA’s 2015 Leadership Challenges-  Now open

By Alison Darcy

Is 2015 the year you do something different and exciting? Are you an exceptional employee at your credit union or building society and an NGS Super member? Are you ready for the experience of a lifetime? Then the NGS Super scholarship for CUFA’s 2015 Leadership Challenges is for you!

The CUFA Challenge Programs are exciting and adventurous leadership programs like no other and are a real test physically, emotionally, intellectually, and culturally. For Jessica Stevens, the 2014 recipient, the Fiji Challenge was about pushing herself to do something outside her comfort zone and immersing herself in the beautiful Fijian culture. She encourages others to do the same.

“I recommend anybody that has the chance to participate in a CUFA Challenge to do it! It was a once in a life time opportunity and I will never ever forget the people I met or the experiences I had and look forward to taking my own family back one day to visit those in Namarai village”.

NGS Super is proud to be again supporting the CUFA Leadership Challenge programs that run annually in Fiji (12 – 22 May 2015) and Cambodia (29 June – 10 July 2015).

We are currently looking for nominations from credit union and building society employees who would like to represent NGS Super at one of these exciting events.
