HDEF provides much needed financial assistance and support to local youth to help them achieve their post high school education and training.

We support a diverse range of education and career pursuits including apprenticeships, traineeships, cadetships, degrees, diplomas and certificate level studies or entry careers. We do not provide cash grants directly to the recipients – the local foundation reimburses the student for a pre-agreed expense or pays the goods and services providers directly. Grants are available to local youth who have lived and/or attended school in the region for the majority of their high school years. Your local CEF does not focus on applicant’s academic success. The four essential selection criteria are:
That you have demonstrated financial need;
You are aged 16-25 years;
That you have gone to secondary school or currently reside in the region covered by your CEF; and
That you have shown commitment to achieving your goal.

HDEF Trivia Nights have earned quite the reputation for bringing the laughs, and last night certainly didn’t disappoint! 💛

It was truly heartwarming to see the Harden community come together in such a big way for an incredible cause and wow, did everyone embrace the occasion! 🙌

The costume creativity was next level, the good vibes were flowing, and the generosity in the room was something pretty special.

What a night, Harden! 💫 Thank you to everyone who came along, dressed up, joined in the fun and helped make the evening one to remember. 🥰
