It’s in the Bag is one of Australia’s most cherished Christmas appeals, encouraging everyday Australians to fill a bag (Teen, Adult, or Mum & Bub) with essential items and include a simple handwritten ‘Dear Her’ note.

Join us as we come together to pack bags that will make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable girls and women in our local community. Every bag packed is a tangible act of kindness, dignity, and support.

The event will also include raffles and a thought-provoking panel discussion, hosted by Share the Dignity Founder, Rochelle Courtenay, alongside 2025 ACT Woman of the Year, Lauren Cannell and CEO of Communities at Work, Lesly Jordan.

Your $45 ticket will include a glass of champagne on arrival, delicious canapés and the opportunity to pack essential bags for women in need.

Ticket sales close Sunday 25 October at 12pm AEDT.
