Country Education Foundation
of Orange and District

CEF Orange and District supports local youth to achieve their career aspirations through post-school education and training.

CEF Orange and District

Country Education Foundation of Orange and District was established to provide financial assistance and support to local youth to help them achieve their post-high school education, training and vocation aspirations. We recognise that the cost of rural students pursuing post high school goals is often much higher than those of their metropolitan counterparts and that sometimes these costs can be prohibitive.

CEF Orange and District fundraises throughout the year and accepts donations from local residents and businesses in order to provide financial grants to students who need an extra helping hand. The funds come directly from your local community – none of it is government funded – celebrating the aspirations of local youth and working to help them achieve these aspirations.

We need your help to continue supporting students just like Claire. 

A bright, young Indigenous woman, she loves working alongside her team in the workshop and out in the field fixing headers, tractors and spray-rigs.

We need your help to continue supporting students just like Lachie.  Thanks to support from CEF, he was able to live in Sydney and complete a Bachelor degree with First Class Honours in Education from the @sydney_uni.

It's scholarship announcement time again! 🤩

Introducing Jada Hogg from Menindee, Far West NSW, who dreamed of studying nursing and returning to remote areas to help fill a critical skills shortage in health services. 🏥

Thanks to the support of our incredible partner, the McLean Foundation, we were able to offer Jada our McLean Foundation - CEF scholarship for 2024 to help her relocate over 1000km from home to @uow to complete her studies. 🛣️

It is undoubtedly clear that Katie Walker has had a remarkable influence on the educational outcomes of regional youth over the past two decades. 😍

Since 2003, Katie has witnessed thousands of students from across rural and regional Australia access post school education and employment through our grants and scholarships as one of our founding Board members. 📜

Katie made the decision to step down from our Board late last year, with her resignation made official at our AGM earlier this month.

While it is sad to see Katie depart our Board, she is still continuing on as Secretary of @cef_yassvalley, and will continue supporting many more students locally there for a while yet. 💪

Read all about Katie's remarkable service to CEF and the difference she's made to so many young lives under Blog in our Linktree link in bio.

Congratulations to our student, Taj Elliot, who has been announced as our 2024 @vertoau - CEF Indigenous Scholarship recipient! 😍

Taj, who is supported by Hastings Education Fund, is studying a Cert III in Electrotechnology at @tafensw Port Macquarie, NSW.

Needing to purchase tools and equipment for his course, we're sure this money will go a long way to helping him and taking the financial pressure off! 💪

This scholarship, proudly supported by Verto, is awarded to one indigenous CEF-supported student each year studying in a VET course.

Read all about him by going to the News section on the Verto website.
