PNG Gardener has donated K90,000 to Pacific Adventist University (PAU) through the PNG Gardener Education Fund, providing much-needed financial assistance to high-performing students struggling to settle their tuition fees.

The education fund was established a decade ago through a partnership between PNG Gardener and PAU to support deserving students facing financial challenges. The initiative helps students continue their studies and complete their qualifications without the burden of outstanding school fees.

As part of its ongoing commitment to education, PNG Gardener has pledged to contribute K50,000 annually to the scholarship fund. The funding will be managed by PAU's administration and staff, who will oversee the selection and support of eligible students.

The program targets hardworking Papua New Guinean students who have demonstrated academic commitment but require financial assistance to complete their certificates, diplomas, and degree programs.

A PNG Gardener representative said the company is proud to continue working with PAU to ensure students are not prevented from graduating because of financial hardship.

"We are very proud to partner with PAU to ensure students who are unable to pay their school fees are given the opportunity to complete their studies and graduate," the representative said.

The representative also thanked PAU's Vice-Chancellor, management, and staff for their continued support of the scholarship program.

"I want to thank the Vice-Chancellor and all the management and staff of PAU for partnering with PNG Gardener on this scholarship fund, which is helping deserving Papua New Guinean students achieve the highest levels of education," the representative added.

The annual contribution reinforces PNG Gardener's commitment to investing in education and supporting the next generation of Papua New Guinea's workforce and leaders.
