E3 Grants

Our E3 (Encouraging Educational Excellence) program provides grants to rural and regional schools to encourage excellence in literacy and numeracy.

The RAS Foundation has given away over $165,000 to 38 schools in locations across NSW – from Walgett and Gunnedah to Deniliquin and Ulladulla. E3 Grants support a range of student and teacher needs such as tuition fees, library books, skill development workshops and extracurricular activities.

The E3 program is run in collaboration with the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR).
