Support the Tyrell McCarthy Memorial Scholarship Fund

To honor his memory, the McCarthy family is establishing the Tyrell McCarthy Memorial Scholarship Fund. This fund will provide annual scholarships to student(s) at Heartlake Secondary School who best exemplify Tyrell’s character and values.

Heartlake Secondary school has been giving out this scholarship in Tyrell’s name since 2014. Due to budget, time and staff cuts, they are no longer able to host the fundraising events that were previously used to fund this scholarship. We would like to continue this tradition and are looking to our generous family and friends to assist us in this.

Tyrell was suddenly taken from us in June 2013, he had gone to a friends cottage to relax after exams and while swimming was caught in some underbrush that pulled him under the water, although they were able to pull him out of the water and revive him his organs failed and we lost him that evening.

Tyrell was a star student; he was a leader in school as well as with his friends and family. We would like to continue to honor his memory with this scholarship and we thank everyone in advance with their help in achieving this.
