Together we create change

The CQUniCares Appeal is an opportunity to come together and create positive change in areas that matter to you. From 9-15 October 2023, a call out will be put to the community to come together and raise funds.

Support one deserving cause (or all three)

You can support three worthwhile causes - students experiencing financial hardship, First Nations skills development, and seagrass restoration.

  1. CQUniCares Student Success Scholarships help make education more accessible to more financially disadvantaged students.
  2. Research pathways for First Nations students provide more accessibility for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to undertake research qualifications, closing an important gap in Australia’s research capacity.
  3. Helping to protect our coastal environment will ensure they can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Choose a cause that aligns with your interests and passions, knowing that 100% of your gift will go directly to your chosen area and gifts over $2 are tax deductible.

Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a lasting impact.
