On Tuesday, 36 Whitireia students received scholarships from the Whitireia Foundation to assist with their 2021 studies.
The Whitireia Foundation is a volunteer-run trust, established in 1999. They aim to promote
knowledge, interest and support for the educational activities of Whitireia students. Donors, which are listed below, are often big industry players who recognise the importance of vocational education as a pathway for New Zealanders into work.
The scholarships are awarded to students who are achieving in their courses but find themselves in a financial situation which would impact their ability to study, and who showed enthusiasm and willingness to work hard to succeed in their chosen field of study. The majority of scholarships awarded will be used for tuition fees or the materials needed for their course.
