MORE needy students will get help with school-going expenses from Southwest Community Development Council and its corporate partners, which are doubling the bursaries this year.
A total of $400,000 will go to 3,400 students who study in schools in the Southwest district, twice that awarded last year.
A portion of that - $60,000 - will be for transport bursaries for 500 students, provided by ExxonMobil and matched by SE CDC. Each student will get an annual bursary of $120.
