Our story
We exist to strengthen and increase the capacity and effectiveness of Australian charities and the not-for-profit sector.
By facilitating scholarships and mentoring opportunities that provide education, training and development to not-for-profit boards, management & staff in key operational areas we improve their ability to lead, manage and govern.
Since 2009 we have administered 13,722 applications and facilitated 4,516 scholarships valued at $13.9 million with the generous support of partner universities, education providers, and funders.
With our partners, we offer a range of high-quality scholarships including postgraduate university diplomas, certificate and degree courses, short management and training programs, and mentoring services. Disciplines covered include leadership, finance, accounting and risk management, strategic planning, project management, marketing, and board governance.
These scholarships have helped leaders of Australian charities and their organisations build capabilities to ensure they are delivering for their communities and maximising social impact.
The Australian Scholarships Limited (ABN 38 626 377 893) is a Registered Charity with the Australian Charities and Not for Profits Commission. It is endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office to operate a Deductible Gift Recipient Fund (DGR).
