Our Mission / Objective
The Australian Scholarships Foundation – ASF – is the only Australian organisation solely focused on funding and facilitating scholarships for Australian not for profit (NFP) directors and staff to undertake education, training and mentoring programs that improve their ability to lead and manage their organisations.
Our Services
ASF works with a number of Education Partners and Supporters to access and make scholarships available in a growing range of leadership and management training programs. These include postgraduate university diploma, certificate and degree courses, short management and other training programs and specialised mentoring services. Disciplines covered include leadership, finance, accounting and risk management, board governance, strategic planning, project management, marketing and social networking.
Our Beneficiaries
Our scholarships support staff, executives and boards of not-for-profit organisations all around Australia. To date, we have awarded over $9 million worth of scholarship opportunities to over 3,500 deserving not-for-profit workers. The impact of these professional development opportunities is far-reaching, benefitting the individual, the organisation and the wider community.
We believe that improved leadership and management capacity is the critical difference in creating efficient and effective NFPs. Even a small improvement in the sector’s effectiveness in delivering its services therefore means big gains for the Australian community.
As Australian NFPs are called on to do more, it is important they operate more effectively and maximize their impact. The big opportunity to increase the sector’s social benefits is by investing in building the capacity of its people.
This is the challenge ASF has set out to tackle.
