🌟 Introducing the Pay It Forward Scholarship

At Boots to Scrubs, we know that not everyone can commit to funding a full $10,000 scholarship on their own. But together, small contributions can make a life-changing difference for a future doctor.

That’s why we’ve launched our brand-new Pay It Forward Scholarship — designed for individuals, small businesses, doctors, alumni, and supporters who want to help in any way they can.

💡 How it Works

  • Donations of any size can be made directly into the Pay It Forward Scholarship fund.

  • Once the fund reaches $10,000, a full scholarship will be awarded to support a deserving medical student.

  • If the fund hasn’t reached $10,000 within 2 years, we’ll still award a scholarship with the amount raised — ensuring that every dollar goes directly towards empowering the next generation of doctors.

🙌 Why It Matters

The Pay It Forward Scholarship creates an opportunity for many people to contribute to one student’s journey. It embodies the spirit of community, support, and shared responsibility — recognising that even small acts of generosity can come together to create something big.

✅ Tax Deductible

As a registered Australian charity with Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status, all donations to the Pay It Forward Scholarship are 100% tax deductible.

Join us in paying it forward.
Together, we can open the door for a future doctor who may otherwise struggle to pursue their dream.

Boots to Scrubs is now a registered Australian charity with the ACNC!

We are proudly working to inspire, empower, and support rural women to pursue careers as doctors in the communities that need them most. By providing scholarships, mentorship, and rural outreach events, we break down barriers that have long kept country women from entering the medical field.

Now, more than ever, we need your help.

Whether it's $5 or $5,000, your donation directly supports:

  • Scholarships for rural women starting medical school

  • Mentorship programs connecting students with rural doctors

  • Outreach events in regional schools to show girls what’s possible

  • Resources and workshops to demystify the medical pathway

Thanks to your generosity, we're not only building doctors—we're building healthier rural communities.
