Paying it forward on Mother’s Day 2024 with our first community birthing kits assembly day

Zonta Ipswich welcomes people of all ages seeking to be a part of collaborative projects and community activities to build a better world for women and girls.

Welcome to Ipswich

At times it’s hands on with our support of Birthing Kits Foundation Australia which has resulted in 1000’s of these lifesaving kits instrumental in decreasing infant mortality in Africa and our neighbouring countries. To date this has been largely achieved through the involvement of local schools. In 2024 we launched our first Community Birthing Kits assembly day. This will be the first of many allowing our club to pay it forward for mothers who don’t have access to the same resources as we do.

We run a comprehensive campaign during the annual 16 Days of Activism advocating for an end to violence against women and girls and to create an Ipswich community that is safer for all. We have produced signage for businesses to display in public conveniences to promote support services, partnered with Ipswich businesses to showcase our messages on local billboards and to display our Orange ladies to raise community awareness. We  have worked closely with Ipswich City Council to install an art project in Lobely Park in Churchill, a red bench in Tulmur Place and to orange the world by lighting up the City Council building. We are active in supporting our partners, like the Domestic Violence Action Centre, during Domestic Violence Awareness month and packing care packs to support women who are escaping violence.

Annual International Women’s Day breakfast.

The Zonta Club of Ipswich is renowned for our annual International Women’s Day celebration and other fundraising activities.

We are part of the District 22 Homelessness Working Group and are kicking off our involvement in the Zonta Says NOW to climate action campaign. This is all part of our goal to make a difference in our local community and contribute to change on a global level. Add your voice to ours and be part of a passionate group of change makers.

Women and men from all walks of life are club members, sharing their stories and providing skill development opportunities through project activities and membership on committees.

Do you have innovative fund raising ideas or would you like to partner with us to make a difference to the lives of women and girls? We’d love to hear from you and work together.

And it’s not all work as we love to come together at our regular coffee mornings or for an after work drink. We also throw a good party!
