Eltham Presbyterian Church is partnering with the Graeme Clark Foundation to honour the legacy of David Burt, a beloved parishioner and long time board member of the foundation.
Grant Holley, chairman of the Foundation formally launched a scholarship in David Burt’s memory to help continue research into treatments for sensory deficits, including hearing loss. The cochlear implant, invented by Graeme Clark has become famous around the world. Like Graeme Clark, David Burt’s life and work was shaped by his Christian faith. Also, as both have long connections with the Eltham Presbyterian Church it is fitting for us to partner with the Foundation in establishing this scholarship. The scholarship will depend our donations from the public so we encourage to do so by visiting the Graeme Clark Foundation web page.
