On 7 December 1958 a campus fair was conducted 'to promote Scholarships at the Melbourne University and at the Hebrew University.' Sophie Davis, on behalf of the committee that organised and conducted the campus fair ('campus fair committee'), donated a part of the proceeds of the campus fair to the University of Melbourne to establish a scholarship. The scholarship, to be called the 'Melbourne Campus Fair Jewish Women's Scholarship', is offered to students in their final year of study and in financial need.
