Margaret Cotton Memorial Bursary
The late Dr. David Cotton’s (MD) legacy lives on through the Margaret Cotton Memorial Bursary, a tribute to the mother who first inspired his journey into medicine.
Margaret’s strength during her battle with cancer left a lasting impression on him as a young man, shaping his path as a physician. Years later, after losing her and facing his own terminal diagnosis, Dr. Cotton established this endowed bursary to honour her memory. Through his gift, he ensured that future medical students at the University of Saskatchewan’s College of Medicine would have the support they need to pursue their dreams of becoming doctors.
