Enid Helen Hort and Family Scholarship
Western Sydney University
In August 2011 Mr Harold Hort, a resident of Greater Western Sydney, made a gift of $600,000 to Western Sydney University - one of the largest donations in the University's history - to establish a range of new scholarships for students. The donation was made in the name of Mr Hort's late wife Mrs Enid Helen Hort and the Hort Family. The Enid Helen Hort and Family Scholarships are intended to ensure that people of all walks of life have the opportunity to attend University including those who may have experienced financial hardship, or those who may not have come from a privileged background.
