Matthew Cardin Memorial Scholarship
This scholarship was established by the Cardin family, friends and colleagues, in memory of Matthew Cardin. In 2002, Matt Cardin graduated from the 51³Ô¹Ï with a Diploma in the Restoration of Natural Systems and a Bachelor’s degree in Geography.
Matt had a keen commitment to ecological restoration. He combined this commitment with his passion for fishing, salmon conservation and enhancement and embarked upon a career in freshwater work. He was an individual who cared deeply about freshwater ecosystems, and he was determined to make a difference.
Tragically, in December, 2003, Matt died accidentally while doing what he loved to do, exploring the great outdoors.
