Who We Volunteer For.

Empowerment Through Connection

Because every act of kindness causes a ripple effect

Each program we team up with an environmental, local, national & global charity to lend our Hiking Hearts & Hands to support communities near & far.

These Community Connection Days are designed to leave girls with a sense of fulfillment & positivity knowing that their hard work impacts the lives of others.

We endeavour to teach our girls how powerful their simple choices & actions are & how they can make a positive impact in the world. In turn, deepening their sense of gratitude for their own lives; these Community Connection days are an integral component in our program.

This years Charities include:

Happy Boxes Project - National Charity

We’ve teamed up with the wonderful Happy Boxes Project to educate our Hiking Hearts about the disadvantages girls their own age face in rural & remote areas. With help from our sponsors, our Hiking Hearts are on a mission to supply boxes of basic female necessities. We collect supplies throughout the program, pack them all up & send to a remote community - some so remote they are only accessible via boat or plane.

“The goal is to provide girls, regardless of their location and situation, with the enjoyment of life’s little luxuries that we regularly take for granted. It may not sound like much, but a little can go a long way.”

Strong women are the backbone of our communities

Mothers, Sisters, Aunties, Grandmothers; all trying to support their families in adverse circumstances, quite often pouring from an empty cup. If just one Happy Box can fill one person’s cup, then what we do is more than worthwhile. We believe kindness is contagious. And if our random act of kindness gives one person the energy to fill another’s cup, the kindness will continue to ripple outwards.

The Happy Boxes Project aim to:

• Support the empowerment of women through alleviating the barriers of accessing basic needs,

• Provide opportunities for women to build capacity for individual and community development; and

• Provide opportunities for women to share story and create connection to nurture positive mental health.

Baby Give Back - Local Gold Coast Charity

Baby Give Back is a Queensland charity passionate about helping vulnerable babies, children and families in our community. This beautiful chairty works hard to continuously collect donated essential items (everything from clothing and nappies to cots, prams and car seats) & work with caseworkers and social workers to provide customised orders for families desperately in need within our community.

Our HHH Program heads in to their Gold Coast location to lend our helping hands. We collect, sort and clean donated essential items to help BGB fulfill their orders as quickly as possible.

“Our girls helping this chairty makes a huge impact in the lives of those struggling locally”
