Can you financially support Project BridgeWorks?
Youth Education Scholarships
This Scholarship fund helps to cover education costs for BridgeWorks transitioning youths and provides them with a viable future option. The youth are especially vulnerable as they can be viewed by relatives as “something that can be sold”. Education costs per student vary from A$20/mth (Yrs 1-3 High school) through to over A$100/mth for university. In the spirit of fairness, these funds will be set up in a pool in the BridgeWorks Scholarship Fund to make it possible to assist those at every level of education. The scholarship will help to provide day-to-day expenses that includes school fees, text books, uniforms, stationery, and other associated costs.
- Provide for scholarship – A$25 or A$50 a month per child/youth
BridgeWorks Youth Transition Centre
Funding is needed to help build the BridgeWorks Youth Transition Centre on the BridgeWorks land. This will enable the youth to be in a more permanent residence rather than in rented premises.
