The Sue White Fund for Africa provides funding to enable students to study for a PhD at 果酱视频官网 on a topic related to Professor White’s research. The fund is financed by a generous donation to the University made by Professor White through her estate. 

Tshephang (Tshepi) Tumoyagae is one of the PhD students to be supported by the Sue White Fund for Africa. Her project, 'Increase of Water Supply from Storm Water Harvesting and Artificial Recharge in Botswana', aims to identify all available sources of water to increase water supply and to artificially recharge underground water resources. Current resources are diminishing as a result of drought and increased demand. Existing data and relevant technologies will be reviewed and investigated. It is expected that the project findings may have direct relevance to the national water security strategy, and will assist in improving water security within Botswana.

“You need to have gone through your working life to really understand and appreciate the value the MBA delivers. I am hoping that my legacy helps Cranfield to make the MBA programme more accessible and to operate from world-class facilities. Cranfield needs more alumni to value their MBA long into their lives and believe as I do that Cranfield is in their blood. It's a special life鈥憀ong membership and we have a responsibility to nurture it for future generations.”
Cliff Barry (Executive MBA 1996)
