The J R McKenzie Youth Education Fund Print

This Fund makes small grants to individuals/families for children’s education-related costs.  Examples are shoes, uniforms and school fees for families where there is difficulty in meeting these basic costs.

There is also a modest special grants fund which can make special grants for disadvantaged children, covering such items as glasses and special tuition fees.

A copy of the Youth Education Fund application form  is available online. If you would like to submit an application, please print the form, fill it out and return it to the address specified on the document.
