Tertiary Scholarships

The Community Waikato Scholarship aim to support paid and volunteer workers in community-based social service organisations:

• Who are undertaking tertiary study that will contribute to their own development and social service work
• Who have demonstrated their leadership potential and significant commitment in the social service sector.

We are particularly keen to support students undertaking courses relevant to not-for-profit management.

3. Undertaking tertiary study leading to a NZQA approved qualification that will contribute to your social service work.
