About Our Education Foundation
Macrossan & Amiet Education Foundation Limited was established on 25 November 2025. The Macrossan & Amiet Education Foundation was created to promote education and learning for secondary and tertiary students. With a strong focus on the Mackay and Whitsunday regions, the Foundation also supports learners across Queensland, helping them access the resources and pathways they need to succeed.
The Education Foundation is dedicated to supporting students from the Mackay and Whitsunday regions in pursuing educational opportunities that contribute to the growth and sustainability of local communities.
The Foundation provides financial assistance to help students access quality education, reduce financial barriers and pursue opportunities that create long-term regional impact.
Our Mission
The Foundation is dedicated to supporting students by providing financial assistance to help meet the costs of education. This includes school and university fees, textbooks, and other essential education-related expenses such as travel, boarding, and living costs.
How the Process Works
We offer funding across a range of key educational areas to support students at different stages of their academic journey.
Applicants pursuing practical, career-focused fields such as business, property development, tourism, healthcare and engineering, may be given preference, particularly where there is clear potential to contribute to the Mackay and Whitsunday region.
Ongoing funding may be considered based on merit and the strength of the application.
