The Macpherson Smith Rural Foundation Limited (MSRF) is a charitable institution focused on the needs of rural and regional Victoria. MSRF's vision is of: 'Thriving, engaged, rural Victorian communities, inspired by confident leaders and empowered, informed individuals.'
MSRF was established through a grant from the Helen Macpherson Smith Trust, a well known independent philanthropic trust established by the late Helen Macpherson Schutt (nee Smith). Today, MSRF provides post-school scholarships, mentoring and leadership development programs to school leavers from regional Victoria.
