Celebrating Excellence: Honoring our 2026 Bursary Winners
At CFUW Perth & District, we are bursting with pride as we celebrate 10 extraordinary young women who have been awarded bursaries this year. Among them are Leah, Serena, and Alyssa—just three of the incredible recipients whose dreams we are honoured to support.Thanks to the generosity and dedication of our community, and the funds raised through our Home & Garden Tour and other initiatives, we are able to empower these young women to pursue higher education. Their passion, determination, and commitment to making a difference inspire us all.But our impact doesn’t stop there. These funds also fuel our local advocacy and education programs, bringing knowledge, resources, and opportunities to libraries, community agencies, and schools across the Perth and district. We are building a brighter future—one where education, equality, and empowerment are at the heart of everything we do.
