Kim Harding OAM and Irene Miller started with a vision of a future where every Australian girl, regardless of financial background, has the opportunity to reach her full potential, lead a fulfilling life, enjoy prosperity and contribute meaningfully to the community.
Cara Varian, as the founding CEO, helped them bring their vision to life – three extraordinary women who believed in the power of education to transform lives. Their vision, leadership, and passion laid the groundwork for the impact we see today.
The Harding Miller Education Foundation empowers high academic potential girls in Australian public high schools, who face economic barriers to excel academically, realise new opportunities and achieve their full potential. We do this via targeted educational resources and unwavering support during years 9-12 and beyond.
Kim and Ireneβs vision has become a reality thanks to the dedication of our incredible staff and volunteers who have walked alongside our scholars every step of the way. Their commitment – to mentoring, guiding, and supporting β has helped shape the lives of so many girls and turned an idea into lasting impact. π
Weβre so proud of our scholars, past and present, and grateful to every supporter who has helped us reach this milestone. Here’s to the next decade of impact! π«
