Sustainability of the project is essential and a major focus of our work. Each year the AWSOM Project awards several scholarships to candidates from My Tho City. The scholarship program is a vital part of our drowning prevention work in the Mekong Delta region.

​

The scholarship recipients travel to Perth, Australia to undertake training and professional development with the Beatty Park Swim school.

​

 All costs involved in these scholarships are fully funded by the AWSOM Project.

​

We were so excited to announce our recipients for September/October 2024:

Congratulations to Mr Linh and Mr Phuoc from My Tho City who have been awarded the 2024 Louis Magee Scholarships. Ms Tuyet, Director of Operations Vietnam, will accompany the teachers to Perth where they will participate in a number of professional development activities including training with Beatty Park Leisure Centre teachers and a coastal safety field trip in Albany. It is always an honour to host our scholarship recipients and show them around our city.
