SUPPORT EDUCATION FOR GENERATIONS TO COME
Donations to the Children’s Future Education Endowment are placed in a managed capital fund, and earnings from this will be used to support children over the very long-term.
Unlike an annual donation that supports children and young people in the immediate short-term, a donation to the endowment will continue to support children for generations to come.
The corpus of the Children’s Future Education Endowment is managed by Perpetual Private, under a comprehensive investment policy.

PERPETUAL SCHOLARSHIPS
By investing in the Children's Future Education Endowment, you can choose to establish a Perpetual Scholarship to support the educational outcomes of children in need in perpetuity.
The minimum donation of $250,000 for a Perpetual Scholarship will provide educational support for students on our Learning for Life program into the very long-term. As your Learning for Life students complete their time on the program, their scholarships will be passed to the next generation of students, and so on it goes.
You’ll have the unique opportunity to name your Perpetual Scholarship, creating an enduring legacy for you and your family.

ADRIAN AND MONICA’S STORY
We knew how much we had benefitted from the education we received and what it allowed us to achieve. We were in total agreement that education was the opportunity for young people to get out of the circumstances they were born into.
We set up the Adrian and Monica Avis Foundation, which is part of The Smith Family’s Children’s Future Education Endowment. We liked the fact the endowment fund provides ongoing, long-term funding to support Learning for Life students in perpetuity, and this way, our gift would keep giving.
It’s good to think that our support will help break that cycle of disadvantage, child by child, family by family – and ultimately, generation by generation.
