This Women’s Month, we’re amplifying voices, healing, and hope.

Empower Her is a student-led program that works to improve the lives of women who have experienced rape, domestic abuse, or poverty. We use art, media, and community activities to build strength, restore dignity, and inspire change.Open Mic: Feel Good Vibes. Step into the spotlight or cheer from the audience - this is your opportunity to express, connect, and honour resilience. Expect poetry, music, comedy, and genuine storytelling in a vintage environment that exudes love and inventiveness.

Why it matters: Every woman deserves to be secure, dignified, and given opportunities, not just during times of crisis, but even afterwards. This event is a fundraising and awareness drive to help survivors and effect meaningful change.

Let’s work together to create a better future. Happy Women’s Month.
