Canberra November Cause Club: Do Good IRL for Women & Girls in Need

Join us in Canberra for our November Cause Club! This month, we're getting hands-on for a good cause, supporting Share the Dignity's It's in the Bag campaign. 💙

The heart of it: We're coming together to collect everyday personal care essentials for women and girls doing it tough. We'll also be handwriting little notes of kindness and making colourful DIY bag tags to add a personal touch to the donations. Because sometimes the smallest gestures can make someone feel seen, supported and less alone.

Heads up: This month, we'd love everyone to bring along an unopened, in-date personal care item (or a few!) to add to our donation pile. Think shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, toothpaste, period products (see the full list below). It could be something you've already got at home or something you pick up on your next grocery run. No pressure to spend big. Every little bit helps!

We'll bring all the crafty supplies, so no skills or experience needed. Just bring yourself, your donations and a little love to share.

Our group mission is to:

🧴 Collect personal care essentials to support women and girls experiencing hardship

💌 Write heartfelt notes and decorate colourful bag tags to make each donation feel a little more personal

🤝 Meet some lovely new mates while doing something good together

WHEN

Saturday 21 November, 2:00pm – 3:30pm

We'll kick off at 2pm, so try to arrive on time. We don't want you to miss out!
