Empowering Girls Through Education

Each year we leave the Harding Miller Education Foundation Awards Night, feeling inspired and hopeful. Congratulations to this year’s incredible scholarship recipients from Year 9, through to those beginning their post-school journeys.

Hearing from past scholars is always a powerful reminder of how life-changing this support can be. Seeing the girls performing and achieving their goals is very humbling.

Real Impact Through Real Support

Giving these young women a scholarship means giving them more than just financial aid — it’s providing a lifeline to a brighter future. It unlocks access to quality education, vital resources, and the confidence to dream bigger. A scholarship can be the difference between a path limited by circumstance and one paved with potential. Through this support, these girls are empowered to thrive academically, grow personally, and contribute meaningfully to their communities, proving that with the right investment, talent and determination can flourish regardless of background.

Why Girls’ Education Matters

Education is one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of poverty.

Girls who receive the right equipment support for learning tutoring and coaching are more likely to finish school and pursue further education.

With each additional year of schooling a woman’s income can rise by up to 25 percent.

Educated women who become mothers are more likely to prioritise their children’s health and education setting up future generations for success.

A Stronger Society Starts Here

When girls are given the chance to succeed everyone benefits.

Their achievements lift up families, strengthen communities and accelerate economic development. Supporting their education is one of the most powerful investments we can make for a fairer, more prosperous future. Bayard are massive supporters of education for young people and looking to lift the equality amongst women in the future.
