The scholarship, valued at $5000 per annum, was established to assist and encourage Australian students enrolled at an Australian University or residential College, who cannot afford to pay either tertiary institution tuition fees or tertiary residential college fees, for the duration of their studies.
Founded in 2015, Catenian Charity Inc has been working hard with the help of its members and volunteers to help young Catholic tertiary students Australia-wide. Their goal is to advance the future of young Catholic leaders in Australia by enhancing their life through learning.
The aim of the scholarship is the advance the interest of young Catholics and to assist them in the choice or pursuit of a career.
