Giving to UniSA
Many
of the University's achievements would not have been possible without the
support of our generous donors. A total of 123 Foundation scholarships and
grants have been awarded to UniSA students in 2009, representing
almost $590,000 in
support.
Through your support UniSA appeals have continued to provide funding for rural and isolated students, assist financially disadvantaged students undertake student placements, and encourage some of our best and brightest students to pursue higher level research.
UniSA is committed to the continual improvement of its physical and academic profile and depends as much on the benevolence of corporations and individuals as it does on government funding.
UniSA's Code of Practice: University Philanthropic Activity provides guidance to University staff and potential donors and partners on the conduct of development activities within UniSA. It also assists understanding of the University of South Australia Foundation Committee and its role.
