YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1091988) Scholarships for the UK's Future Engineering Talent An Arkwright Engineering Scholarship is one of the UK's most prestigious accolades for a young aspiring engineer or technical designer, widely respected by university admissions tutors and industry recruitment managers. The Arkwright Scholarships Trust is a charity that identifies, inspires and nurtures future leaders in engineering and related areas of design. We award Engineering Scholarships through rigorous selection to high-calibre school students in year 11 (England and Wales), S4 (Scotland) and year 12 (Northern Ireland) to support them through their 'A' levels or Scottish Highers. Arkwright Scholars are encouraged to go on to study engineering or a related area of design at university, or to take up a high-quality higher apprenticeship; and to pursue a technical career. Arkwright Scholarships consist of an annual financial award to each Scholar and to his/her school, and a range of activities that increase a Scholar's understanding of engineering and the world of work. We are also able to offers a small number of undergraduate engineering Scholarships to our existing Sixth Form Scholars as they move on to university. Arkwright was founded in 1991 and since then we have awarded over 2900 Scholarships. In 2013 we aim to award 350 Scholarships to dynamic, talented young people. We have no capital endowment to draw upon and we rely on the support of people and organisations with an interest in the future of engineering. For more details of our work, please visit:

Hands Across the Water (AU, 78774995987) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00In 2004, countless Thai children were left alone and homeless by the Boxing Day tsunami. Hands founder, former police forensic specialist Peter Baines, working with the tsunami disaster victim identification team, was deeply touched by the number of children left homeless and alone by the natural disaster. He was inspired to establish an organisation that could make a difference. In late 2005, a team of committed individuals with the desire to help others formed Hands Across The Water. Hands Across the Water is a boutique Australian charity that gives at-risk Thai children and their communities a helping hand. Our projects are tailored to meet local communities’ needs – for the long term. The work we do is focused on improving the lives of the kids and their communities today and in the future. In our first 6 years, we’ve raised more than $7 million without spending a cent of donors’ money on administration or marketing. Building our first orphanage, Baan Tharn Namchai In 2004, we initially supported 32 kids who had lost their parents and were living in a tent at Baan Tharn Namchai (BTN) in Phang-Nga, a town on Thailand’s northern Andaman coast. The kids were left without food, shelter or support. Hands, along with a number of equally committed supporters pooled their resources to build the first orphanage at Barn Tharn Namchai. Our director, Khun Rotjana, led the centre. Baan Tharn Namchai was opened in August 2006. We added a girls-only building, in January 2009. Today, Baan Tharn Namchai is home to 74 children and 12 bouncing babies. We support hundreds of children in multiple locations across Thailand: Baan Tharn Namchai Home Hug Yasothon Centre The New Life Project at Kanchanaburi The New Life Project at Chumpon Baan Nam Khem community centre and tsunami refuge Chanthaburi Centre (PAMA House) Chiang Mai Centre (coming soon) We have centres and projects in northern Thailand outside Chiang Mai, in the west at Kanchanaburi, Yasothon in the north-east, outside of Surat Thani at Chumpon, several hundred kilometres south of Thailand’s capital, Bangkok and at Chanthaburi near the Cambodian border.
