Singer Kylie Minogue is to become patron of a new charity launched by UK student social networking site, StudyVox. The StudyVox Foundation will provide bursary support to UK undergraduates seeking help with tuition fees.

Kylie has already helped support the launch of the Foundation, and recorded material for StudyVox FM, the site’s online radio station.

StudyVox has pledged an initial £16,000 in bursaries to help with student fees.
