After completing a strategic review, the Sumner Ferrymead Foundation has a new focus. “We have made the decision to offer a range of scholarships and awards for both community groups and individuals on an annual basis rather than responding to requests for financial assistance.

To celebrate 30 years of helping the local community, the Sumner Ferrymead Foundation offered five community grants with a total value of $30,000. The recipients, along with the Scholarships & Awards recipients, were recognised at a recent event at the Mt Pleasant Community centre.

Meet the recipients of the Sumner Ferrymead Foundation’s Scholarships & Awards Programme and you leave with the feeling, that despite all the doom and gloom in the media, the future is actually in good hands. They all have a clear picture as to what they want to achieve in the coming years.
