We realise there are so many causes calling for financial support in Australia currently, it seems overwhelming to decide where to best put (and trust) your heart and hard earned dollars.
We are not a registered charity because we cannot afford the registration process, or the ongoing accounting maintenance and reporting required for a registered charity. We do however give you our absolute promise that the funds raised for this project are 100% committed to the girls we support. There are no administrative fees, there are no directors fees. All our own work is done voluntarily and we give as much as possible where it has the most impact. It allows us a certain freedom to operate efficiently, to pivot where and when we need to (given world events), and to act diligently with integrity. We feel we are a charity ‘start up’, a bare bones team who works tirelessly to deliver on something we believe in. So if you would like to do a small bit to help us, it is very much appreciated and very much needed.
