The longstanding partnership between Mohawk College and the Lawrie Insurance Group puts a premium on education and student success.

From the moment Mohawk College Insurance students enter the McKeil School of Business, Media and Entertainment, Lawrie Insurance supports their academic journey. Students will learn in classrooms and meet in a lounge that bears the name of Dan Lawrie, founder of the company. They receive scholarships and bursaries funded by the company.

This college-company relationship goes back more than 20 years. Notably, in 2007, Lawrie made a large donation to help fund the new Mohawk College Centre of Excellence in Insurance and Financial Services. A few years later, Lawrie and other insurance industry leaders contributed $600,000 to outfit the Bert Hares Boardroom and two classrooms, where Insurance students learn, collaborate and make presentations as they prepare for promising careers in Canada’s insurance industry. At that time, the Insurance Founders Lounge was also created, providing a space where students can gather and study.

The relationship extends beyond the classroom. Lawrie Insurance Group has been a generous funder of student scholarships and bursaries for students in the Insurance program, supporting them as they pursue their studies.
