The Caroline Chisholm Education Foundation (CCEF) empowers students to make meaningful change in their lives.

Established in 2007 and inspired by humanitarian Caroline Chisholm (1808–1877), CCEF champions access to education. The foundation supports students facing financial hardship who may wish to study at Chisholm or are already enrolled.

CCEF is committed to disrupting disadvantage. It assists people of all ages who are forging a new future – with new prospects, new skills and new opportunities.

With your help, we can empower people to imagine new possibilities today and set a course for success tomorrow.
