ANSVAR GRANT TO HELP LIFE EDUCATION REACH 1,800 HUNTER STUDENTS

Announcement posted by Thurnham Teece 24 May 2018

Specialist Insurer Ansvar has given $47,112 to Hunter Life Education to ensure it delivers an important “Life Education” program to more than 1,800 students in the Hunter Region.

The donation is part of Ansvar’s $250,000 national Community Education Program (CEP) grants to seven not-for-profit organisations across Australia in 2017/18.

The grant to Hunter Life Education will deliver classroom modules focusing on obesity, drug use, the impact of alcohol consumption decisions, and bullying.

“The funding from ANSVAR will allow us to deliver a specialised program to students who are most at risk,” said Hunter Life Education Executive Officer Sarah Gray. “This aligns perfectly with our objectives of providing learning modules in partnership with schools to give students the best life education advice possible."

Ansvar Australia is a specialist insurer providing cover and risk management services to the faith, heritage, charity, education, and real estate sectors.

Since 1994, Ansvar has contributed more than $10 million in grants to organisations that assist thousands of young Australians.

Ansvar CEO Warren Hutcheon said: “We are very proud of our CEP Grant Program and inspired by the phenomenal work that this year’s seven recipients do to better the lives of
Australia’s young people. Funding for non-profit organisations becomes more and more of a challenge every year, and Ansvar looks forward to watching these amazing organisations make a positive impact in so many people’s lives.”


A review panel assesses applications in October each year.
