Awards

Vision & Leadership Award Now Open!

 

The Haemophilia Foundation Australia Vision and Leadership Awards were developed by Haemophilia Foundation Australia (HFA) fours years ago to enable people who are affected by a bleeding disorder to seek and achieve new goals in their lives.

The 2010 funding round opens in December 2009. The Awards program is funded by an education grant from Wyeth Australia.

 

People affected by haemophilia, von Willebrand disorder and other rare inherited bleeding disorders of all ages are eligible to apply. This is a chance for you to do something you have always wanted to do, but not been able to do because you have not had the financial capacity to support your personal goal. It might be for an education activity or special project to enhance your personal development or career, or attend a conference or program to enhance or develop new skills for leadership and participation in the bleeding disorders community.

What would make a difference in your life? Consider applying for one of these Awards to help you achieve success or reach a new goal or objective in 2010.Five Awards of $2,000 are available for applicants in either of the following categories: • Young men and women aged 15-25 who have a bleeding disorder or who are affected by bleeding disorders
• Adults aged 26 yrs and over (men or women) with a bleeding disorder or who are affected by a bleeding disorder

Applications must be received by 31 March 2010 by email, post or fax to:Haemophilia Foundation Australia
