Formerly offered under the Education Wealth Plan Scholarship, the programme has been reintroduced this year as the Scotia Insurance Headstart Scholarship. President of Scotia Jamaica Life Insurance Company Debra Lopez-Spence, said the scholarship demonstrates its belief that financial protection should create opportunities for families, not only provide peace of mind. Through the Scotia Insurance Headstart Scholarship, we are pleased to support our customers as they invest in their children’s future while highlighting the long-term value of planning ahead. The company says the Scotia Insurance Headstart Scholarship is one of the ways it continues to deliver meaningful value to its policyholders by supporting aspirations beyond financial protection and helping to create brighter futures through education.
