Bursaries and Travel Grant

Bursaries administered by the DENOSA STUDY FUND COMMITTEE are ONCE OFF donations and will not be renewed automatically.  In other words if you need further financial assistance, you will have to apply for a further bursary every year, on the prescribed application form.   CLOSING DATE is 31 January 2024.  LATE applications CANNOT be considered.  PLEASE NOTE that the amounts of the bursaries are SMALL and, should a bursary be awarded, it will only cover a small portion of the expenses.

THE TRAVEL GRANT FUND OF DEMOCRATIC NURSING ORGANISATION OF SOUTH AFRICA (DENOSA)

Background

At the 1975 Triennial Congress, the student nurses undertook to collect money for this travel grant in honour of Miss Mary Greta Borcherds for her contribution to the development of nursing in South Africa and internationally.

The purpose of the grant is to develop nursing in South Africa by means of assisting nurses to attend conferences and study tours abroad.

To safeguard the fund, only the interest generated from the investment of the fund as well as the deposit made from a portion of the Old Mutual Commission will be used annually.
