She Gives: Growing Women’s Giving in Australia was officially launched at Admiralty House by Her Excellency the Honourable Ms Sam Mostyn AC, Governor-General of Australia in a landmark event celebrating women’s leadership in philanthropy.
Over 100 guests from across Australia joined us for the launch, which began with a moving Acknowledgement of Country from Tanya Hosch AM, Director of GO Foundation, She Gives Advisory Group Member and featured remarks from an inspiring national cross-section of women, including:

Attendees included distinguished leaders from across philanthropy, business, government and civil society. We were also honoured to welcome Her Excellency the Honourable Dame Quentin Bryce AD CVO, former Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia, alongside many other esteemed Australian women whose leadership continues to shape our national story.

The launch marked the release of the largest mixed-methods study of women’s giving ever undertaken nationally. Drawing on insights from more than 2,000 women, the report highlights the powerful role women already play in shaping generosity across Australia - and calls for a deliberate national shift to recognise, resource and grow women’s giving at scale.
The occasion was both a celebration and a call to action, underscoring the pivotal opportunity presented by Australia’s $5.4 trillion intergenerational wealth transfer and the urgent need to strengthen philanthropy in response to rising social need.
