Food Lover’s Market Tertiary Education Bursary Scheme
The power of education to transform lives and pave the way for a brighter future, that’s why we are proud to introduce our Tertiary Education Bursary Scheme, aimed at supporting the educational aspirations of the children of our dedicated colleagues.
Nelson Mandela: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”.
Realising the importance of access to higher education, we launched this initiative to provide financial assistance to deserving recipients, covering university or college fees, tuition packs, residence fees, and additional support for essential expenses such as food and transportation.
Our commitment to closing the social mobility gap is reflected in our focus on supporting those children who may face barriers to accessing life’s opportunities.
Through our Tertiary Education Bursary Scheme, we received 16 applications and were proud to grant five bursaries to the children of our colleagues. These bursaries represent more than just financial support; they symbolise our dedication to nurturing talent and investing in the future leaders of our society.
