Background

The New South Wales Chiropractic Student Trust Fund was established in 1964 by chiropractors from The Australian Chiropractor’s Association (NSW) to promote and encourage education in the science, art and philosophy of chiropractic.

It has achieved this objective by financially assisting students to become chiropractors and by providing research grants to post-graduate chiropractors.

From it's inception the trust fund has provided valuable financial assistance to over 60 chiropractors. Several of those who benefited from the trust  have related how it "saved their lives" at the time. The condition that beneficiaries must return to NSW has meant that a number of chiropractors have returned to NSW to practice when otherwise they would have gone elsewhere.

For a number of beneficiaries who have returned and had major impact on the association and the profession the "return" on those funds is beyond calculation.

While there are students of chiropractic there will be those to whom expenses incurred during their training will create hardship. In particular there will always be students whose desire to become a chiropractor is restricted or postponed due to financial constraints.

For these students, and for the benefit to the profession in years ahead, the trust fund seeks to provide financial assistance in the form of low interest loans, scholarships or grants.
