This event is hosted by Roundabout Canberra and Karinya House, with funds raised helping both organisations to continue supporting women and children, and the community here in Canberra.

Roundabout Canberra lightens the load for women impacted by trauma and structural inequities by supporting the provision of safe, high quality essential baby and children’s items to families in need across our community.

Karinya House enable women who are pregnant or parenting to access practical and emotional support. Provide time and space for women to (re)discover their confidence; to develop their capacity to represent themselves and to make informed choices about their own lives. Providing a place of sanctuary and growth for women.

This inaugural event provides additional opportunities for corporate partners to deliver on their community engagement commitment with linkages to two well established local Canberra community services. More information about these sponsorship opportunities, or for donations to support this event can be found here.

Special thanks go out to our Hope Starts Here - Principal Partner, Parker Coles Curtis and venue sponsors Hyatt Hotel Canberra whose support has made this event possible.
