Note: In the event that no applications are received from a volunteer or a CEO, the bursary will be granted to a fund development professional.
"If we had not received this bursary, we would not have been able to financially afford the costs of sending a Board member, no matter how valuable. Given the opportunity, I would definitely attend another AHP conference or recommend to my fellow board members that they should. I feel that the “return on investment” was certainly money well spent.” Read more.
