June marks Youth Month in South Africa, a time dedicated to celebrating and empowering the young minds that will shape our nation’s future. At The Tomorrow Trust, we are committed to playing an active role in this empowerment through our comprehensive bursary programme. With a mission to provide holistic support to disadvantaged students, our bursaries extend beyond financial assistance to encompass a wide array of developmental and psychosocial support services.
Our tertiary bursary programme is designed to address the diverse needs of our students. We understand that financial aid alone is not enough to ensure academic success and personal growth. That’s why our bursaries cover:
- Tuition Fees: Ensuring that our students have access to quality education without the burden of financial stress.
- Accommodation: Providing safe and conducive living environments that foster academic focus and personal well-being.
- Stipends and Living Allowances: Assisting with daily expenses so that students can concentrate on their studies.
- Psychosocial Support and Development: Offering counseling, mentorship, and workshops to nurture emotional resilience, self-confidence, and leadership skills.
Since our inception, The Tomorrow Trust has supported 725 university graduates. These alumni are now contributing to various sectors, embodying the values of growth, compassion, and social justice that our organisation stands for. Their success stories are a testament to the impact of our comprehensive support system.
Youth Month is more than a celebration; it is a reminder of our collective responsibility to nurture and support the next generation. At The Tomorrow Trust, we are dedicated to providing opportunities that empower young people to break the cycle of poverty and achieve their full potential.
As we honour the youth of South Africa this June, we invite you to join us in our mission. You can be a part of the programme and be awarded a bursary for the 2025 academic year by completing our online application form which will be published by the end of June across all our platforms.
The Tomorrow Trust’s bursary programme is more than just financial aid; it is a comprehensive support system designed to foster academic success and personal growth. By addressing the holistic needs of our students, we empower them to overcome challenges and contribute meaningfully to society.
