If the best way to learn is by doing, Hala Ezzeddine is as scholarly as they come!

As a volunteer, Hala has contributed her time and talents to a wide range of projects and initiatives. In her time as a student at Grande Prairie’s Northwestern Polytechnic, she served as a member of the Student Ambassador Program supporting prospective and current Northwestern students in adjusting to post-secondary life and achieving their academic, professional and personal goals. Known as the
“first to sign up and the last to leave,” Hala was awarded Volunteer of the Year in 2023 by the Student’s Association of Northwestern.

Hala has not limited her volunteer activities to campus and has sought out volunteer opportunities in support of the Alberta Winter Games, shows at the local art gallery and at craft shows. Her sterling reputation as a willing volunteer has put her name at the top of the list for organizations looking for the talents that she brings to each event or activity. 
As a volunteer supporting her fellow students, as a neighbour helping to strengthen her community and as one with a passion for service, Hala Ezzeddine is honoured as a Northern Lights Volunteer Recognition recipient.
