Community Development Trust

Arniston is one of the oldest traditional

active fishing communities in

South Africa with the

unfortunate conditions of being a lesser

privileged community.

The Arniston Community Development Trust exists to benefit the people of Arniston, providing students with

financial assistance to complete tertiary

studies for a brighter future.

The only requirement is admittance to a

university or some other recognised educational

and training institution.

Beneficiaries must show in their first year that they are willing and able to study and improve their skills.

In the years that follow, students are eligible for larger

bursaries and this depends on how

well they perform and how difficult the course is.

Established in 2004, the Trust assists students from the Arniston community to complete their studies. It saw three student applications in its first year.

 

Since then, the number of students have grown rapidly. Only students

and/or prospective students from the

Arniston community and surrounding villages may apply to the Trust for help.
