Over the weekend, 30 runners from Monash University hit the Medibank Melbourne Marathon Festival course to raise $10,000 for Asylum Seeker Scholarships at Monash. Combined with donations from fundraising stalls on campus and our efforts from Run Melbourne, 2,000 donors from the Monash community have raised $50,000 this year! The generosity of our Monash staff, students, and alumni will cover well over a year of an Asylum Seeker Scholarship, helping to provide an education to someone disadvantaged by circumstance. Thank you. There’s still time to make a last-minute donation. You can see our fundraising activities here: bit.ly/MonashImpact
