The Brave Foundation’s Education Scholarships have been created to minimise the financial barriers experienced by expecting and parenting teens as they continue through their secondary school education.
The secondary/tertiary school scholarships reflect an understanding that many expecting and parenting students experience unique challenges at this stage of their education and life. The scholarship is an acknowledgement that many of these students cannot sometimes afford the necessary costs associated with attending and completing secondary school. Costs identified are online books, hard copy books, and travel expenses to education provider, computing equipment and school fees.
