This has been achieved through a variety of fundraising initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our ongoing commitment to advocacy and service culminated on Monday 25 August when members assembled 200 birthing kits in partnership with Birthing Kit Foundation Australia. Each kit contains essential items designed to improve maternal health outcomes and minimise risk of infection, particularly in emergency situations and low-resource settings. The process of assembly proved deeply meaningful amongst all members as students reflected on the real and lasting impact that such support provides globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We encourage the College community to continue supporting future Girl Up initiatives. Next term, we will be running a stall at the Fra Angelico Festival where you can purchase goods to directly contribute to future projects that empower women and girls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We extend our sincere gratitude to Ms Jenkins, Ms Ma and Ms Lam for their invaluable assistance and encouragement which made this initiative possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mia Bek and Davina Rajkumar<\/strong><br>Girl Up Club Officers<br>Year 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"18263\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5234-2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"18264\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/IMG_5237-2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-08-26-at-1.55.38-pm-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"732\" height=\"914\" data-id=\"18262\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-08-26-at-1.55.38-pm-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-08-26-at-1.55.38-pm-1.jpg 732w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-08-26-at-1.55.38-pm-1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-08-26-at-1.55.38-pm-1-120x150.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 732px) 100vw, 732px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past 18 months, Girl Up Club has proudly raised almost $5,000 to support the United Nations, Parramatta Women\u2019s Shelter and Birthing Kit Foundation Australia.
