NSWALC Educational Scholarship
In 2000 Mr. Frederick (Freddy) Fricke generously bequeathed his home to the NSW Aboriginal Land Council (NSWALC). The Council decided to use the funds from the sale of Freddy’s home to establish a Scholarship fund to assist in the education of Aboriginal peoples in NSW. The NSWALC Freddy Fricke Scholarship (the Scholarship) was launched in July 2002. Since then, the NSW Aboriginal Land Council has awarded 49 scholarships to assist Aboriginal students in their studies.
NSWALC has committed to make two scholarships of $10,000 each available annually, to assist students with funds to help complete their studies. It is aimed at penultimate year students at a tertiary institution in NSW.
The Scholarship will also provide an opportunity to undertake a six-week paid internship in a NSWALC Business Unit of the Scholarship recipient’s discipline.
