Far North Qld Youth Assistance Fund Inc provides numerous Youth Achiever Awards, Scholarships and Bursaries to deserving youth achievers in the fields of sport, secondary and tertiary education and the arts. These Awards are provided to youth whose families do not have the financial capacity to achieve the child's desired outcome. The Fund also assists disadvantaged youth with personal, health, education or welfare needs. This has at times been achieved with the help of other organisations. The Fund assists youth under the age of 21, whose parents are unable to pay for school resource hire or uniforms for students attending school. We also present scholarships to eligible students who have been selected in Peninsula or State teams in any sport. Assistance is also given to eligible year 12 leavers, whether they wish to attend University or a TAFE College. The Fund will endeavour to assist applicants according to their need and the availability of funds on hand at the time of application.
