Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to your application?

The Betty Loughhead Soroptimist Scholarship (BLSS) is supported by all New Zealand clubs.  Our clubs are arranged into two regions  - South and North. Each region nominates three of their members to serve as trustees of the BLSS Trust for a two-year term. 

Each trustee reviews all [eligible] applications 
independently, and then the trustees meet in October/November each year to moderate their individual assessments and agree that year's recipients.
