| From the Club PresidentWelcome to BPW Caboolture! I’m Linda Upton and I am honoured to be elected President of BPW Caboolture. I am extremely passionate about supporting local business and professional women throughout their journey. We meet each month to share knowledge and foster great opportunities for our personal and professional lives. At each meeting we are treated to great speakers who are specifically engaged to inspire and enlighten us with either business acumen or personal well-being. BPW offers a personal and professional development opportunity for women to increase their confidence and standing in the workplace and in the community. We advocate for gender equity- locally, nationally and globally. At BPW Caboolture we have a professional group of diverse and passionate women supporting each other and volunteering their time and energy to our amazing club. Guests are welcome to come along and attend any of our events or our breakfasts, enjoy our guest speakers and meet the amazing members of this dynamic group.

Days for Girls - Days for Girl is committed to supporting a girl throughout her entire lifecycle, from providing her with a DfG Kit, to teaching her health education, to offering training for her when she grows older, so that she can produce DfG Kits and support hygiene needs in her community.
UPDATE 2015: After having Mayse visit us at our YBPW Networking event in Caboolture which raised $2000 for Days For Girls, I was compelled to start sewing for such a wonderfully worthy cause. Having two daughters of my own I was horrified to hear how young girls and women were treated in different parts of the world. With the help of the sewers at Caboolture Crazy Quilters, BPW Caboolture ladies were able to pack and send off 50 kits to Redlands DFG in Qld to go with their distribution. UPDATE: 2016 During 2016 we had a visit from Lyn Sutherland from Redlands Qld Dfg and BPW Caboolture donated $1,000 to them. 3 generations working together for the girls. Gail Hudson BPW Memeber, Shirley Putland, Natalie Hudson YPBW UPDATE: 2017 After much sewing and again a lot of support from the Caboolture Crazy Quilters, we were able to produce and pack 90 kits to be distributed again by Redlands Qld Dfg. YBPW Caboolture held a networking event raising $848 from a raffle which was put aside for Days For Girls and producing kits. Days For Girls Qld Caboolture Team was formed during this year. With the support of the local Newspaper we were able to get the word out and received a lot of donations of fabric and a number of volunteer sewers. |
