The Awards Programme

Academic Awards Programme

Each year, The Kate Edger Foundation (KEF) funds approximately 110 educational awards totalling over $600,000, for women. Funding varies for each award from $2,000 up to $18,000 to assist with study expenses, fees or retraining.

The award selection process is overseen by an experienced Awards Committee and the approach is both academic and holistic, considering things such as financial need, whether the applicant is first in family to study, or any challenges they might have.
