The Women’s Housing Company (WHC) are excited to announce the launch of our Education Scholarship Program.

The Scholarship Program has been created to help tenants and their children pursue their goals by providing financial support towards education and training. This new initiative offers successful applicants up to $2,000 to pursue educational goals.

Through investing in education, the WHC aims to support personal growth, skill development, and empowerment for WHC tenants and their families.

This initiative is supported by a generous donation by the WHC Patron, the Honourable Ros Kelly AO, allowing the WHC to support tenants and their household members in their educational pursuits.

Applications have now closed. Successful applicants will be announced at the WHC International Women’s Day Event on March 8 2024.
