Back to School Program

The Back to School Program (BTS) is a national program which has been operating since 2005 and provides $50 gift vouchers from Target or local providers, to students in need. These vouchers are redeemable for items such as school uniforms, clothing, shoes, school bags and stationery items. The program has been supported by various trusts and foundations, particularly the Sidney Myer Fund whose generosity, together with FRRR, has been the financial backbone of the program.

The program is based on an Expression of Interest submission and level of need within the community.  Those who take part in the program enter into a Grant Agreement with FRRR, with specific and defined distribution and reporting requirements. Participating organisations administer the program at their own cost.   

Expressions of Interest close on 14th October 2011. If you have any questions regarding this project, please contact the Grants Manager on 1800 170 020
