We, the participants of the 2021 Tasmanian Leaders Program have immensely valued the support and confidence received throughout the program this year and want to provide the opportunity for someone else.
Together, we have established the Changemaker scholarship to help a Tasmanian ignite positive change within our state. A Changemaker is someone who takes creative action to solve problems, big or small, from sparking a global movement to calling out a bully in a workplace. As either of these scenarios requires courage and a willingness to fail, we recognise the value the Tas Leaders Program could provide such an individual.
In order to make this happen, we need your help! The scholarship will be funded by donations from current participants and the Tasmanian Leaders Network, which will cover the employer fee (up to $7,000) for a community leader who would otherwise be unable to afford the opportunity to undertake the Tasmanian Leaders Program. The scholarship amount will equal the fundraising total minus fees and administrative costs.
As the founder of Engineers Without Borders, George Roter, says "Everyone has Changemaking in their DNA, it's just a matter of unlocking it". So please, JOIN US and give someone the opportunity to reach their full potential, and DONATE!
*The successful recipient of the Changemaker Scholarship will be subject to the usual eligibility criteria for all Tasmanian Leaders Program participants.
