Our Foundation
The College Foundation was launched in 1989 to further develop Marcus Oldham as Australia’s independent centre of excellence in rural and equine business management education.
The Foundation is guided by a dynamic Board of volunteers, representing College graduates, families, staff and the corporate sector, who work collaboratively with the College Council to provide and enhance a range of academic opportunities for its students.
Unlike other tertiary institutions, Marcus Oldham does not receive any formal funding and is solely reliant on the philanthropic generosity of the College community to further advance its facilities and educational programs.
Over the past 30 years, the College Foundation has facilitated the provision of numerous scholarships and bursaries, residential improvements and academic developments, including significant equestrian facilities.
