From the President: October 2023
Welcome to the October edition of the Old Girls’ Association Blog.
I hope you’re all enjoying this lovely change in the weather.
We are still accepting applications for the Old Girls’ Association’s Project of Mercy grant, now in its third year. This grant is for up to $5,000, designed to enable a Santa Maria College alumni to undertake a project with a focus on helping others less fortunate within the WA community. Applications close on Friday 13 October. You can find all of the details here. Â
So many of you are doing wonderful things, and we look forward to being able to support your efforts in a small way. It’s been a pleasure to watch our past recipients do wonderful things in their fields, and we hope to continue this grant for many years.Â
Until next time.
