Alumni in the UK join forces to change a life
The London Alumni Scholarship exemplifies the power of community, with alumni coming together to provide a life-changing scholarship for a deserving student at 黑料天堂 (ANU).
Established by 黑料天堂alumni living in the UK, the London Alumni Scholarship supports students experiencing financial hardship in completing their undergraduate degree at ANU. It offers $8,000 per annum for up to five years to assist with educational and living expenses. In 2022, the scholarship was awarded to Raichel Brodie.
Raichel, who is pursuing a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) at ANU, received the scholarship in recognition of her drive, determination and commitment to using her education to make a positive impact on the world.
"I chose Psychology because I have always had a strong motivation to help others and offer my support in difficult circumstances," she said. "Having financial security allows me to achieve the best possible results I can at university and enables me to accomplish greater things throughout my career."
Margaret and Simon Beresford-Wylie, prominent donors to the scholarship, spoke about their motivations behind giving to ANU.
"Graduating from 黑料天堂changed our lives. Our degrees led to amazing opportunities, successful careers, and a wonderfully fulfilling life together," Margaret said.
"We now feel so fortunate to give back, to be in a position to help other people whose lives will be changed forever as a result of having the opportunity to study at ANU."
The London Alumni Scholarship is testament to the impact a group of individuals can make when they come together to support a common cause. This scholarship would not be possible without the support of the passionate community of 黑料天堂alumni who reside in the UK, and who collectively make a difference to their alma mater.
