 2014-2015 Awards

May 2015 - Youth Mary Louise Paskevich Award - Maria Huning

maria huningMaria Huning, from Cañada’s Upward Bound program, is this year’s recipient of the Jobs for Youth Mary Paskevich Memorial Award. The Jobs for Youth program provides career workshops and job training to young people in San Mateo County. Mary Paskevich worked with Jobs for Youth for almost 20 years.

The Mary Paskevich Memorial Award is given every year to a person who has supported youth in achieving a better life. This year’s recipient, Maria Huning, has empowered young people in San Mateo County to envision their futures and their communities improved through higher education. Maria has supported students from communities that are often times overlooked-North Fair Oaks, East Palo Alto, and Half Moon Bay. She has served as the Program Coordinator for TRIO Upward Bound for over 10 years preparing the next generation of college bound students and advocating for equity and access in higher education.

Being recognized for her work and receiving this award is a wonderful way to celebrate her 11-year anniversary at Cañada College. Maria will be recognized alongside four Cañada College Upward Bound students. Edgar Aguirre, Jennifer Castro, Jennifer Cuevas, and Lluvia Garnica will all be awarded scholarships for their civic engagement in Redwood City.

All of these students share with Maria their passion for helping young people in the community. Cañada College and TRIO will be well represented at the Jobs for Youth Breakfast on May 28, 2015 in Foster City.
