WOOL WINE AND WHEAT SCHOLARSHIPS

We are a small non-government supported group who raise money to support our aspiring school leavers requiring a financial ‘leg up’ to achieve their goal.

Wool, Wine & Wheat Country Education Fund was inaugurated in 2007 with the aim of supporting young school leavers – from Clare, Burra, Balaklava and Riverton – to achieve their goals and follow their dreams to a future career path, wherever it may take them. There are three main criteria from which students are selected: a realistic goal, dedication to achieving that goal and being in real need of financial assistance.

As a non-profit organisation, Wool, Wine & Wheat provides financial assistance to school leavers to help their dreams come true. Our focus is not specifically on academic achievement but rather the need for ‘real’ support, which may include rent assistance, travel, equipment or books, and we ensure a broad range of abilities and interests are supported.

Our recipients’ goals have been extremely diverse over the years – from university courses, stage production with NIDA, equine management, photography, TAFE courses and apprenticeships.

Applications are now open and close at the end of October. It is a fairly simple process where students go onto the CEF website and follow the steps to apply for a scholarship.

If you have any questions or need assistance please contact one of the following people.
