As most of you know, Ravi was a driving force behind many social initiatives at Ajax High School and within his community (Culture of Peace, White Bandana Campaign, etc.). After his passing in September 2013, an annual scholarship was established in his name and given out in his honour.

The Ravi Panday Peace & Community Award (RPPCA) is presented to a graduating student(s) who exemplifies and promotes community building and peace within their school and/or community. This student takes on initiatives or projects that encourage an environment of cooperation and understanding within a diverse student body.

Since 2015, the RPPCA has been awarded to four change-makers who have made a difference in their community:

• 2024: Rumaizah Sumat
• 2023: Vashti Sharma
• 2022: Nilakshi Rajmogan
• 2021: Sara Syed
• 2020: Kayla Thompson
• 2019: Whitney Cook Rouse
• 2018: Fatima Asghar
• 2017: Hamza Farhat Ali
• 2016: Nabeel Hasnain
• 2015: Kendra Johnstone

We would like to thank everyone for their continuous contributions and support-without you, this wouldn't be possible.
