hitting not just sitting | the young boxing woman |CHAIR OF THE BOARD

A great believer in action over words, the founder of Breanna Property is proud to have served as Chair of the Board for over 3 years bringing on board partners such as Ernst & Young ( EY ) and supporting 600+ participants to grow their confidence and networks.

Working with the wider community links the participants to networks, mentors and advocates; providing the support and advice needed to create sustaining change.

An old boys club: for girls. 

 I am very proud of my position as a founding member of YBW and Chair of the Board since it's inception in 2016

01 | Programs in action

YBW has boosted both confidence and physical health for over 260 participants! In 2018 we are running 8 programs concurrently. The Board carefully balances the books so that YBW can run two FREE programs in Subiaco & Fremantle PCYC. YBW also runs programs at Youth Centres, schools and pro-active collaborations such our work with Zonta House.

02 | hitting not just sitting

Written into the rules of association for YBW is that each Board member must actively participate in sessions with the girls. Grass-roots is just that, being on the ground. Here I am at Methodist Ladies College showing the girls what #fightlikeagirl looks like.

03 | developing connections

YBW has a number of strategic partnerships including Headspace, Youth Educating Peers (YEP), AIME and is working on their evidence-based programs through the support of Sociometry. With the hard work of Lisa Longman our Operations Director, we have Dr Nicky Howe punching it out with the girls and "sharing her journey to CEO."
