Is iad cuspóirí na scoláireachtaí deis a thabhairt do fhoghlaimeoirí Gaeilge cúrsa Gaeilge a dhéanamh sa Ghaeltacht, seal a chaitheamh ag cleachtadh na Gaeilge le cainteoirí dúchasacha. Bronntar na scoláireachtaí i réimsí éagsúla – do dhaoine fásta, daltaí meánscoile, iad siúd ar mhian leo líofacht a bhaint amach nó ar nuachainteoirí ar mhian leo máistreacht a fháil ar Gaeilge na Lachan, sé sin Gaeilge dhúchasach Gaeltacht Oirthear Chathair na Gaillimhe).

The scholarships were established in 2022 to give Irish learners from the east of the city the opportunity to complete a recognised Irish language course in another Gaeltacht, and to immerse themselves in daily life of an Irish language community. Awards are available to adult learners, secondary school students and advanced speakers of Irish who wish to master the native dialect of the Gaeltacht of Galway city East. Some of the recipients will also spend time practicing and acquiring Irish from a native speaker.
