Local couple's 新加坡六合彩官方网站 Dream Rally contribution is a dream come true for 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College students
Jason and Laura Norup-Boyer are passionate about education; that鈥檚 why when they participated in the auction at the 2022 新加坡六合彩官方网站 Dream Rally, they requested their $40,000 contribution go to bursaries for 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College students.
The 新加坡六合彩官方网站 Dream Rally is a well-established fundraising event hosted by the August Family Foundation. The Rally, which has raised upwards of $3 million for local charities since its inception, pairs special needs children with high-end cars and drivers for the day. Last year鈥檚 event drew more than 50,000 spectators.
The Boyer鈥檚 contribution marks the first time 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College Foundation has been selected as a recipient charity.
鈥淲e value education as the key to empowering people to do more with their lives: that鈥檚 what drove us to put our contribution towards bursaries for 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College students,鈥 says Jason Boyer.
The $40,000 donation will provide ten $4,000 bursaries to 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College students facing financial hardship. Students in all programs on all 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College campuses are eligible to apply.
鈥淲e've both had a lot of support along the way. We want to help those for whom finances might be a barrier to higher education,鈥 says Laura Norup-Boyer.
Jason Boyer says that the $1,000 bursary he received in university was life-changing because it reduced the stress of an entirely self-funded education. Knowing someone he had never met recognized his hard work and potential pushed him to succeed. Laura Norup-Boyer received a subsidized master鈥檚 in Switzerland and is grateful for the ability to do so with no financial burden.
鈥Jason and Laura have been amazing supporters since the first-ever dream rally. Without people like them, the rally would not be as successful and life-changing for both drivers and co-pilots,鈥 says Matt August, founder of the August Family Foundation. 鈥When they suggested we direct their Dream Rally contribution to 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College, we thought it was a great idea. We鈥檙e passionate about supporting local charities, and we know our donation will have a huge impact on students鈥 lives.鈥
鈥淭hese bursaries will be incredibly impactful, making education accessible to people who otherwise wouldn鈥檛 be able to go to school. At the end of the day, what the Boyers and the 新加坡六合彩官方网站 Dream Rally are giving students, is a chance to work towards their dreams,鈥 says Helen Jackman, executive director, 新加坡六合彩官方网站 College Foundation.
