FONAI is very proud to welcome the Rotary Club of Lindisfarne as a major sponsor for our FESSHIP scholarship program. Thankyou!
Thankyou to the Rotary Club of Lindisfarne, in stunning Hobart, for its support of two vocational scholarships for our recent Year 12 graduates. The lucky students can now begin preparing for future IT & Hospitality Studies.
These generous Rotarians are also funding the Bachelor in Developmental Finance studies for a visually impaired FESSHIP student who would otherwise not be able to continue his studies.
They join our long time Rotary supporters, the Rotary Clubs of Blackwood, Brownhill Creek & Mobilong.
Welcome to the FONAI family.
Your support is greatly appreciated.
