SACTWU manages South Africa ‘s biggest trade union bursary

support to study at universities, technikons and certain other
higher education institutions. The fund was started in 1975
with a small solidarity contribution by trade union members to
help support each other to meet the education expenditure of
their children.

Today the fund is made up of contributions from workers and
companies and through funds generated by SACTWU’s investment
company. Since the beginning, millions of rands have been paid
out in bursaries to thousands of young South Africans whose
parents work in the clothing, textile, leather and related
industries.

  per annum. The student must pay the remaining percentage of the
  fees.
