Scholarship Fund

Daramalan College Scholarship Fund

Dear Alumni and Families,   

Since 1962, Daramalan College has been providing financial assistance to eligible families whose situation would exclude them from giving their child an MSC (Missionaries of the Sacred Heart) education.

The Daramalan College scholarship fund was established in 2013 and aims to offer scholarships to several students each year with the long term goal of supporting scholarship recipients through a self-sustaining fund.

How can you help the student Scholarship Fund

Please consider making a donation to the Daramalan College Scholarship Fund.  All donations, irrespective of size, will make a meaningful contribution to assist young people who would not otherwise be able to attend Daramalan College due to financial hardship.   
 
During June each year, applications for our annual scholarships open, providing financial assistance to students whose family is experiencing significant financial need. Since 2013, the Scholarship Fund has supported an average of 5 students each year and we are aiming to continue this level of support in 2024.     
 
If you are able to make a contribution before June 30, you will receive a tax benefit for the financial year. Tax deductible contributions can be made in the following ways:   
 

1. Direct transfer to the Scholarship Fund account:
