Supporting Disadvantaged Youth in Newcastle and the Hunter Region
The Wests Group, through its ClubGRANTs initiative, is proud to support the Mentor Support Network with a $10,000 donation. This contribution will help provide scholarships to disadvantaged young people in Newcastle and the Hunter Region, enabling them to achieve their educational goals.
The Mentor Support Network scholarships offer financial assistance for essential items such as tools, clothing, and technology needed for successful studies. These scholarships help remove inequality for students who have the potential but face financial challenges. Scholarship recipients are more likely to complete their qualifications and avoid social exclusion.
Our support for this program helps students from local high schools and vocational institutions, ensuring they can finish their education and contribute positively to society. The benefits extend to the students, their families, teachers, peers, and the broader community.
