Allan J Findlay Memorial Bursary - 2023

The Allan J Findlay Memorial Bursary has been established by the Lions Club of Bright and the Rotary Club of Bright to assist young people in continuing Allan’s philosophy of selfless community contribution, and to assist them to fulfil their aspirations of giving back to their community.

A total bursary of $1000 is made annually to support young people with financial assistance to reach their goals and/or further their studies, expand their networks to reach out and connect with others in their area of commitment and/or concern.

It is open to students in Years 9 to 12 levels, residing in the Alpine Shire – this includes young people who school out of the area, are home-schooled, or are no longer school-based.

The successful applicant will direct the bursary toward goals and ideas which may include elements of:

· Personal growth for the applicant

· Benefits for the wider community

· Activities/experiences not usually available in the local area

· Definitive demonstration of community involvement

Applications for 2023 will be accepted until 24/3/2023.
