Disadvantaged School

We are expanding our disadvantaged school student awards program with every extra $. It is also nice to get some feedback and we have letters from a range of schools thanking us for our awards program. Some quotes include;

“Thankyou for your generosity” McKinnon Secondary College.

“I write to thank the Holland Foundation for it’s generous support of our students over the past 3 years” Bendigo Senior Secondary College.

“Thankyou for your kind offer … and have identified 2 students who will receive the scholarship … a Hmong girl in the Atherton Gardens High Rise Estate … The other a boy from a single parent family who has tremendous information and communication technology skills … help his work in digital design.” Fitzroy High.

All schools and recipient students are very, very thankful.
