Our fundraiser

Women Of Impact Fundraiser 2023 & 2024

Tauranga

Fundraiser20232024Tauranga

Women Of Impact was our fundraising night, a room full of generosity that raised almost $30,000 across two years. From here it joins forces with our Women Of Business Conference.

In 2024, thanks to your generosity, we raised an incredible $15,100 for Kura Kai. Those contributions go a long way in helping feed rangatahi and their whānau, making a real difference in people's lives.

Thank you to all our sponsors for donating your products and services to our auction and hampers. It is so appreciated. Together we are helping to create a stronger, more connected community.

In 2023 we held our very first and biggest event yet, raising $14,500 for Tauranga Women's Refuge, helping to support families and whānau across Tauranga Moana.

Be a woman of impact, one who inspires, uplifts, and creates positive change within her circles. Your influence reaches far beyond personal growth, it shapes families, friendships, and entire communities.

We had such a wonderful morning at our very first She Flourishes event. A huge thank you to all our lovely attendees who joined us, your energy made the day so special.

An extra big thank you to our incredible sponsors for helping bring this vision to life, and to our goodie bag sponsors for your generous support.

We were so fortunate to have these beautiful products for our attendees to sample and enjoy. Each one is something we personally use within She Is Unleashed. Yes, every single one. The alignment couldn't have been more perfect.

Our spot prize was a stunning Retreat Her Box by Retreat Yourself, filled with the most incredible goodies. Every box is designed with intention, more than just a collection of products, it's a carefully curated experience crafted to nurture the whole self.

Tauranga

FundraiserFashion2025Tauranga

A fashion evening with MAX, created in support of Homes of Hope Fiji. We raised $2,127.55 together.

So much happens behind the scenes to bring an event like this to life, and it truly takes a village. To everyone who volunteered, donated, supported, attended, and helped in any way, we are so incredibly grateful.

A special thank you to Annemaree for helping bring this event together in support of Homes of Hope Fiji. This simply wouldn't have been possible without our amazing community and the many people and businesses who got behind this event.

And to all of our raffle prize donors, silent auction sponsors, goodie bag contributors, volunteers, models, and everyone who attended, thank you. There are truly too many people to name individually, but please know this: this event belonged to all of us.

Together, we created something beautiful, strengthened our community, and made a real difference for Homes of Hope Fiji. Thank you for believing in the vision, for showing up, and for proving once again what can happen when incredible women and businesses come together for something bigger than themselves.

Launch2025MorrinsvilleNetworking

MORRINSVILLE... WHAT A WELCOME! We walked into the evening not knowing exactly what to expect, and we left completely blown away by the warmth, kindness, and support shown by the women of Morrinsville.

Hosted at The Redoubt, the evening was filled with genuine conversations, inspiring stories, plenty of laughter, and women who were genuinely invested in seeing one another succeed. It was everything we hoped this launch would be, and so much more.

A huge thank you to our incredible guest speakers for generously sharing your knowledge, experiences, and wisdom.

A very special thank you to James and the entire team at The Redoubt for your incredible hospitality. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and for helping create such a fantastic atmosphere. We truly appreciate everything you did to make the evening such a success.

We are incredibly grateful to now have a She Is Unleashed Morrinsville group running. Knowing there is now a space where local women can consistently connect, collaborate, learn, and support one another is exactly why we do what we do.

Thank you, Morrinsville, for welcoming us with open arms. We can't wait to see where this journey takes us.

Better Together Auckland 2025

Auckland

Panel2025Auckland

Our Auckland Better Together evening was everything we hoped it would be, and so much more.

What an incredible evening spent surrounded by ambitious, kind and inspiring women in business. From the moment everyone walked through the doors at Meadow Restaurant, the room was filled with genuine conversations, new friendships, plenty of laughter and a whole lot of encouragement.

At She Is Unleashed, we believe business is better when we build it together, and this event was a beautiful reminder of exactly that.

A huge thank you to our incredible panel of wahine who so generously shared their journeys, lessons and honest insights into building successful businesses: Kelsi Boocock, founder of Shnack and @healthykelsii; Shyr, owner of Forty Thieves; and Rebecca Caughey, founder of Good Sh*t Soda and Seedlip New Zealand.

Thank you for your openness, vulnerability and wisdom. Your stories reminded us that every successful business starts with someone willing to take the first brave step.

To every woman who came along, whether you arrived knowing someone or walked in on your own, thank you for saying yes to yourself. We hope you left with new connections, fresh ideas and the confidence to keep backing yourself and your business. We truly are Better Together.
