It is undoubtedly clear that Katie Walker has had a remarkable influence on the educational outcomes of regional youth over the past two decades. ๐
Since 2003, Katie has witnessed thousands of students from across rural and regional Australia access post school education and employment through our grants and scholarships as one of our founding Board members. ๐
Katie made the decision to step down from our Board late last year, with her resignation made official at our AGM earlier this month.
While it is sad to see Katie depart our Board, she is still continuing on as Secretary of @cef_yassvalley, and will continue supporting many more students locally there for a while yet. ๐ช

Whether itโs helping with social media, taking photos, working on a barbeque or being a committee member, our alumni have shown volunteering for CEF is fun, engaging and rewarding by giving their time and capability to our local CEF foundations. ๐ช
Our volunteers are everything to us, and in recognition of @volunteeringaustralia National Volunteer Week this week, we`re celebrating how important our 430+ volunteers are. ๐
Some of them are also alumni that were supported by their local foundation to make the affordability of their studies possible, and as a token of gratitude, they are now CEF volunteers themselves!
Read all about three of them below- Lachie Barrett (@cefcoonamble and @cef_orangeanddistrict), Heather Walker (Country Education Foundation of Grenfell) and Brittany Glanville (Great Lakes Education Fund) ๐
