Giving the gift of a brighter future this festive season…

Establish a Scholarship

You can create your own scholarship or contribute to a range of CSU Foundation scholarships that support Charles Sturt students and recognise academic and community involvement.

Establish your own fund

Whether you want to honour the legacy of a loved one or raise money for a scholarship or other university cause, an active fund is a great option.

We will provide advice and a support pack to get you started and then the sky’s the limit. Here are some of the ways people support their funds:

• Organise fundraising events such as sponsoring community sports matches or holding a sausage sizzle
• Requesting donations rather than flowers at a funeral
• Undertaking a personal challenge
• Hosting an auction
• Holding a raffle or competition

We encourage you to be as creative as you like.

At Charles Sturt we’re constantly thinking of new ways to give our students better educational opportunities, including new courses and facilities - many of which directly benefit our regions. We can only achieve this with the invaluable support of our donors, which is why we are introducing a series of appeals. Contact us today to find out what we’ve got planned and how you can be involved, as we will begin our first appeal soon.

Workplace learning and industry links are at the heart of our approach to learning. The experience and skills our students gain are reflected in the fact that Charles Sturt has one of the highest graduate employment rates in Australia. You can help Charles Sturt students build real-world skills by contributing to the cost of expenses related to practicum placements.

As a regional university, we take pride in our hands-on, practical approach to solving problems unique to our communities. We lead the world in applied research into education, food and water security, resource economics and law enforcement. Through Alumni give, you can help ensure this important research continues.
