After seven years of providing financial and mentoring support to up and coming musicians and athletes across New Zealand, the Foundation is now focussing its efforts in the Waikato / Bay of Plenty regions. We believe the regionalisation of the Adastra Foundation allows for a more personal approach to the awarding of scholarships and the delivery of our mentoring programme.
 
Applications are invited from young people in the Waikato/BOP who have exceptional talent in either sport or music. The scholarships are intended for those who have not yet reached the peak of their potential but who could, with some assistance, excel on the national and international stage in the next one to three years.
 
More information and the application form can be found at http://www.adastra.org.nz/. Applications close 31 October.
