Ofek Hatikva

Jewish Girls Scholarship Years K-7

The Ofek Hatikvah Scholarship for Jewish Girls is a gift of light born from darkness. Endowed by a generous family, this scholarship honours the memory of the women and girls whose lives were tragically taken on 7 October 2023 and celebrates the courage of those who continue to show strength, compassion and faith in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Through this scholarship, we seek to inspire and support young women who will learn deeply, give generously and serve their communities with the same spirit of courage and kindness shown by the female soldiers, first responders and volunteers who have carried Israel and the Jewish people through grief and rebuilding.

The Ofek Hatikvah Scholarship is awarded to new female students entering Kindergarten to Year 7 inclusive, who demonstrate academic potential, positive character and active engagement in Jewish life.
