## Resource

Four top engineering students in Barbados just won $25,000 each thanks to the Angus Edghill Scholarship Fund — a bold investment in the island’s future. Nicholai Downes, John-Bernard Yearwood, Ajani Headley, and Alec Kellman were chosen for their academic excellence and commitment to critical fields like sustainable energy, environmental protection, and infrastructure. Set up by the Edghill families and administered by BAPE, the scholarship targets young Barbadians aged 18–25 with high potential. The selection process was rigorous, and BAPE president Rey Moe praised the caliber of applicants — a sign of rising talent. Beyond cash, recipients get mentorship and opportunities to thrive. This isn’t just financial aid — it’s a strategic push to build a stronger, more innovative engineering workforce that will power Barbados forward.
