The Federation Foundation was launched in 2010 with a donation of $200,000 by Dr Wai-Man Woo. Since then, hundreds of businesses, families, staff and other generous people have given to the cause. Foundation funds are used to help over 250 students every year.

Of course, we always need more support. Applications for aid went up 20% last year and only 1 in 6 could be backed. We’d love to be able to help every student who needs it. And when you donate, 100% of the money goes to students experiencing hardship.

Why we need your support

Here's a snapshot of our students:

75%

come from regional or rural areas

80%

are first-generation (the first member of their family to go to university)

75%

are in one or more of the equity groups (such as non-English speaking background, have a disability, identify as Indigenous, low socio-economic background)

I applied [for a scholarship] because I was ... really struggling to pay the fees and work and study ... I thought if I will get it, it will be helpful for me to relieve the financial burden."
