Find a Speaker

Do you need an interesting, inspiring speaker for your next social gathering, networking session or major event? You will find experts on nearly every area of women's health at the Women's Speakers Bureau. Contact the Foundation to discuss your needs.

Volunteer
|
The Women's needs volunteers to support our work every day. Volunteers work in the hospital as patient escorts; provide event and administrative support and act as hospital ambassadors. Full training and orientation is provided to all volunteers. People with conversational skills in languages other than English are especially welcome. For more information contact the Foundation or visit the Volunteer page.

Organise an Independent Community Event
|
Plan an event with your friends, family, school, work colleagues or local community that continues to bring happiness well after the last dance. Find out more about organising a fundraising event for the Women's.
|
Make a Bequest
|
You may wish to leave a gift to the Women's in your will. Bequests of all types are gratefully received and will be publicly or privately acknowledged by the hospital, according to your wishes. The Women's Guardians are those who have pledged a bequest in their will or other such gift to support the future work of the Women's. To speak to someone about making a bequest, contact the Foundation.
|
Establish a Special Fund
|
The Foundation can help you establish your own fund to honour a loved one. You will then be able to invite friends, family and colleagues to make a contribution to a unit, department or project of your choice at the Women's. A special fund enables you to mark a special occasion by requesting donations in lieu of gifts. For more information and to order the Women's donation collection envelopes contact the Foundation.

The Women's welcomes the involvement of corporate and community groups interested in taking an active part in supporting the vital work of the hospital. Activities range from formal corporate sponsorships to local fundraising drives and events. For information about corporate and community partnerships with the Women's, contact the Foundation.
