education and she hopes to motivate young girls to stand up and stand out, expressing their ideas and opinions on critical topics.
There were many applicants for the annual BPW Franklin Education Bursary and the judges had a very difficult time selecting a winner as the standard was
so high. Those who didn’t win this year are encouraged to apply again, along with new applicants when the bursary is promoted once more in November 2022.
