Boot Bash funds are supporting students like Carly take the 1,500km hike from her home town of Alice Springs to study in Adelaide.
“The transition of moving from my family’s home in Alice Springs to Adelaide was certainly a challenge but was made a lot easier with the support of the CEF grant. I managed my finances well with the funds from CEF. I have used the funds to put towards my living expenses, fuel and certificates and clearances I need for my course.
CEF are doing an incredible job in providing opportunities for young people like me. CEF has made support and guidance through my financial challenges as easy as possible.”

Growing up in a remote community in outback New South Wales, Taleah knew that pursuing higher education wouldn`t be easy.
“While I have been motivated to study at Uni for a very long time, I always worried about how I could ever make this dream possible,” Taleah shares. “Without the support of CEF and its amazing providers and helpers, there’s no doubt that I would not have been able to attend Uni.”
“CEF’s support has been life-changing,” she says. “Not just financially, but as a source of encouragement and belief in my potential.”
The CEF Boot Bash is raising awareness and much needed funds to give students like Taleah a fair go at education. Donate or register to get involved via the link in our bio #cefbootbash
