Students with Disability Opportunities

Charlie Bell scholarship is now open

Closes 30 November

A serious illness or injury can make life stand still. Making any progress – whether it be in your education or career – can feel almost impossible. That’s why the McDonalds Charlie Bell Scholarship program exists. 

By awarding one-off grants of up to $5,000 to deserving young people, McDonald’s is giving them the chance to get their schooling or career back on track. So, whether the money goes towards university fees, apprenticeship tools, books or supplies this scholarship can help them to succeed.

(Charlie Bell was an Australian who started his career as a teenager working in McDonalds in Sydney and became the head of the McDonald’s global empire. He died of cancer aged 44.)

Applications close on 30 November.
