Motivated young people will experience enhanced prospects and will learn the skills needed to make a valuable contribution to the broader community. The scholarships are currently being offered at Australian Catholic University and the University of Notre Dame but we are looking to expand to Universities in Canberra, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia.

With your help, we can make a transformative change in young people's lives.

Each scholarship is worth $20,000 and, while you may not be able to contribute the total amount, each donation you make will go part way towards a scholarship for a needy young person to study at University.

Please consider making a generous donation today and help us make a real difference in the lives of the hurting, needy and disadvantaged in our community. Gifts of $2 and upwards to the Sisters of Charity Foundation are tax deductible.
