OUR PROGRAMS
A prestigious annual competition that awards winners with a ‘Power Trip’ to Canberra where winners meet inspiring politicians/CEOs, receive leadership and public speaking training, tour Parliament, score a mentor, get their work published and more!
Project Empower
Our award-winning workshops are held in regional, rural and remote high schools to discuss self-esteem, respectful relationships, intersectionality and feminism. In 2018 we drove 32,000km to reach 3,500 girls. In 2021 and 2022, we travelled to every state and territory to deliver 14 workshops.
