Cape Winelands District Municipality Bursaries 2016
The Cape Winelands District Municipality invites well deserving students to apply for participation in the Mayoral Bursary Fund. The shared vision for the Cape Winelands District Municipality is “a Unified Cape Winelands of Excellence!” Central to this vision, Cape Winelands District Municipality acknowledges that youth development is integral to the social, political and economic life of every young person in the District and society in general.The Mayoral Bursary Fund seeks to ensure that human resource development, with specific emphasis on the youth of the District, must address the development of human capabilities and knowledge to meet the people’s ever growing need for goods and services and to improve their standard of living.
It is against this background and the Cape Winelands District Municipality’s commitment to a better life for all, that the CWDM invites well deserving students who permanently reside within the area of jurisdiction of the Cape Winelands District Municipality, to apply for participation in the CWDM Mayoral Bursary Fund.
