Lowndes Jordan sponsors He Ara Atawhai - He kakano Undergraduate Scholarship

Lowndes Jordan is delighted to contribute to the 2023 He Ara Atawhai – He kakano Undergraduate Scholarships, part of client Rua Bioscience’s Impact Programme initiative.  The scholarships encourage rangatahi from Te Tairawhiti region to pursue higher education, in recognition of the positive impact that highly engaged and skilled young people can have on developing a sustainable local economy in the future.  This is the first year that Lowndes Jordan has participated in the scholarships, and we are particularly proud to support scholar Wayan Parfitt of Lytton High School in his studies at Waikato University, where he will pursue a Bachelor of Business.

We congratulate Wayan on his exceptional academic achievement and look forward to following his success at university in 2024 and beyond.  

Lowndes Jordan partner Michael Busch says:

“We’re excited to be involved with Rua’s scholarships initiative as part of our ongoing involvement with Rua.  Since its inception, Rua has focussed on creating sustainable opportunities for the people of Te Tairawhiti through its unique commitment to positive impact programmes.  It is an honour for Lowndes Jordan to be able to contribute toward Rua’s social legacy”.
