”Amos Bursary students, face socio-economic and environmental challenges everyday. They are outstanding like so many of our young people. They have ambition, work hard and care about family and community. They need support. Their talent recognised. Opportunities offered.

What our students say
Antonay Thomas
"Being a part of The Amos Bursary has allowed me to acquire skills and knowledge that I’ve been able to leverage through meaningful relationships with multiple organisations. I’ve worked very closely with a mentor who has taken vast amounts of time to support me."
Elijah Olanipekun
"There are many ways that the Amos Bursary has supported my journey as an apprentice. One of those ways has been to provide mentor support for me. My mentor understands my scenario well and I appreciate his efforts to make time to meet on a regular basis and to offer insightful suggestions"
