Impact of Giving afternoon tea

On Friday 8 April 2022 President and Vice-Chancellor, Professor Colin Stirling, hosted an event to highlight the impact of giving to education and research at Flinders University.

The afternoon tea at Alere Function Centre was a unique opportunity for donors to meet with students and researchers who have benefitted from their philanthropic support.

Guests heard from Arvind, a student who received the Matthew Flinders Scholarship during a time of need, and were moved by words from Ann - the mother of Marcus who was supported by Professor Robyn Young's early-intervention autism research at Flinders.

The event concluded with Associate Professor Simone Tur giving a tour of the newly developed Yunggorendi Inparrila gathering space, which was supported by the Shirley Matthews bequest.
