Financial Need

Support for Women

Our Recipients

Statistics show that over 50% of workers on the Sunshine Coast make less than $30,000/year (Vital Signs 2014). In addition, 24% of children under the age of 17 live in poverty, twice the national average.  One of the solutions to income inequality is education.  The financial barriers for many Sunshine Coast women make furthering their education out of reach.

Our bursary program supports women who are committed to advancing their education to improve the quality of life on the coast for themselves, their children and the community.  

The feedback from bursary recipients is that they could not have succeeded without the Society’s support and encouragement, that “it is a wonderful feeling to be supported by my community and I look forward to reciprocating any way I can” and that the bursaries are making a positive impact both on their life and the lives of their children.
