Stories of impact
More than financial backing, every donation made and passed on to our students sends a message of support.
It represents the hand that helps them up. It’s the encouragement to keep going, the much needed faith to spread their wings, the unspoken permission to leap and, in some cases, the very freedom to fly.
At Charles Sturt University, we humbly accept the generous gifts made by our donors, and we give our deepest thanks. Here we share with you some of the stories that have touched us along the way.
