Orange

We support a diverse range of education and career pursuits including apprenticeships, traineeships, cadetships, degrees, diplomas and certificate level studies or entry careers. We do not provide cash grants directly to the recipients – the local foundation reimburses the student for a pre-agreed expense or pays the goods and services providers directly.

Grants are available to local youth who have lived and/or attended school in the region for the majority of their high school years. Your local CEF does not focus on applicant’s academic success. The four essential selection criteria are:

• That you have demonstrated need;
• You are aged 16-25 years;
• That you have gone to school or currently reside in the region covered by your CEF Orange and District;
• That you have shown commitment to achieving your goal.

If you satisfy the criteria and would like to apply for a grant, please complete the online application form. Applicants will be required to attend a panel interview whereupon their outcome of their submission will be notified in writing.

Should you be successful in receiving a grant, we request that you agree to the following obligations:

• Notify CEF Orange & District if you receive any other grant/scholarship/funding from another source
• Agree to assist with and attend local foundation fundraising and promotional events if available at CEF Orange & District’s request; and
• Report to the CEF Orange & Districts every six months on how your goal is progressing, how the grant has assisted you and your marks/grades for the semester if applicable.
