Applications for Jemalong Irrigation’s 2020 scholarship program are now open. The program sets to encourage our rural youth to further their passions in rural and regional areas.

Jemalong Irrigation is passionate about helping youth from across the Forbes and Lachlan Shires to reach their full potential, supporting education and skills development, supporting rural communities and supporting young people who are passionate and committed to forging careers that will contribute to the future success of rural and regional NSW.

Applicants must:
• Be a resident of the Forbes or Lachlan Shires
• Be under 25 years of age
• Be an Australian Citizen
• Demonstrate a desire to contribute to the future of regional NSW
• Demonstrate how a scholarship would assist them in achieving their education or training goal

There is no limit on the type of course that qualifies. Applicants can be completing an apprenticeship, studying at TAFE or university, either on campus or by distance
