With three Trustees’ term of office ending this year, we seek new members to build on our success and widen the work and impact of the Trust. Since its foundation in 2014, the Trust has secured funds from corporate, individual and trust sources for a range of scholarships, student-led initiatives, projects and campus improvements.
