The group of University friends who established the Scholarships in 1984 included Kerry Capstick- Dale (former Rag Chair), Dr Charles Webb (former Residence Committee), Janine van Stolk (Rag Exec) and Nassos Martalas (former SRC Vice President). They were joined by Chris Downie who as a bank manager at the student branch of Standard Bank had formed a close friendship with students involved in student government.
They were later joined by past winner Claire Rockliffe-Fiddler and Gareth Ackerman (former Rag Chair and SRC Exec). On Kerry's death Tamra Capstick-Dale joined the group of Trustees.
