Past speakers include Rosana Barbero (Addi Road), Lucy Brogden (Australian Unity), Dr. Michelle Byrne (Mayor of The Hills Shire Council), Dr. Mia Kasby (Councillor of The Hills Shire Council), and Dennis van Someren (Transitional Community Housing Program).

Looking ahead to 2025, we are thrilled to welcome Sonia Cassanova, CEO of Dress for Success, and Donna Burton, also known as Donna the Astronomer, who will join us online in July.

 Our Major Fundraising Events

At Soroptimist International of The Hills District, fundraising is a team effort that brings out the best in our members, drawing on everyone’s unique skills and experiences to make a real impact.

We host two major fundraising events each year:

  • Bunnings BBQs – Twice a year, you’ll find us serving up smiles (and sausages!) at the Castle Hill Bunnings site. These BBQs are a fantastic way to connect with the local community while raising funds for our advocacy projects.
  • Fashion Parades – Twice a year, we organise fabulous Fashion Parades that showcase stunning collections of ladies' fashion and accessories. These events combine fun, style, and purpose, all while supporting important causes.

These events are not only vital to our fundraising efforts, but they’re also a wonderful way for members to work together, share their talents, and strengthen our bond as a team.
