 Lorna Milgate Scholarship - Preliminary Nominations 2024

Freemasonry in NSW & ACT is very fortunate, through the Lorna Milgate Scholarship Trust, to continue to benefit young people by bringing tertiary education within the reach of those who may otherwise have been denied such an opportunity. These young people have been represented at many Universities and TAFE Colleges and have graduated in a wide range of disciplines including Agriculture, Business, Nursing, Teaching, Engineering, Speech Therapy, Marine Science, IT, Plumbing and Vehicle Mechanics to name just a few.

Over the years there have been in excess of one hundred Students who have benefitted from the foresight and generosity associated with the Trust.

On behalf of the Grand Lodge Trustees, we, Lodge St. Andrews Manilla are pleased to invite suitably qualified students for the Lorna Milgate Scholarship Awards - 2024.
