The ABCN Scholarship Foundation provides mentoring and financial scholarships to exceptional students facing economic, family or social challenges which impact on their study or capacity to pursue their desired tertiary pathways.
Winners receive $7,000 over Year 11, 12 and their first year of tertiary education, to spend on study resources and help alleviate financial hardship in their homes.
Scholarships also provide each scholar with their own dedicated mentor from a network of corporate partners who assist them in setting goals and developing valuable workplace skills.
Natalie is the recipient of this scholarship and has begun her journey in this program where she has set her goals for 2017 with the help of her mentor Heidi from the Commonwealth Bank.
