I am grateful for
this oppurtunity

Receiving the Property Education Foundation scholarship 
was very significant to me. In the latter stages of my high schooling, I grew an interest for property and economics. When I found out that I had received the award, I was sure that this would be the first big step in entering the property sector.

The monetary value of the scholarship has assisted immensely in my living and rent expenses, and I’m not sure how I would have coped without the help of the scholarship! I am very grateful for the opportunity that PEF has given me, and am looking forward to utilise their assistance as much as possible.
