The Angus Robinson, Jr. Memorial Scholarship Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) education foundation established in the memory of Angus Robinson, Jr., who was a leader in the reinsurance industry for nearly 20 years. The Foundation awards scholarships to students of Risk Management, Insurance or Actuarial Science.


The Foundation is called "the Angus" for short, but it has a long history of scholarship support within the reinsurance and insurance industry. We have made awards to candidates in many colleges and universities, throughout the United States and Canada. We have a committee looking at new development ideas, as well as those concentrating on scholarships, finance and board development.
