Who we are

The Podmore Foundation was incorporated in 2008 by a group of Duntroon graduates in gratitude for the opportunities they received for a good education in good company. Podmore now involves a diverse group of Australians who want to create educational opportunities for others.  

What we do

Podmore raises funds and mentors specially-selected Indigenous boys and girls from rural and remote communities and towns, who have received scholarships on merit to some of Australia's finest independent boarding schools. Podmore assists implementing partner, Yalari (www.yalari.org.au), with $5,000 Podmore scholarships to help cover the significant financial gap between the means-tested ABSTUDY scheme and student fees and costs at independent boarding schools. As well, Podmore works closely with parents and guardians to ensure that Podmore scholarship recipients are not alone in meeting the challenges of a boarding school education.

What you can do

Help us educate and encourage the next generation of Indigenous Australian leaders through donations, fund raising in good fellowship and mentoring.
