Bellarine Women's Network Inc. connects, supports and empowers women through community, learning and shared experience.
Our mission is to develop supportive relationships and benefit the wider community.
We gather on the third Thursday of each month for a casual dinner.
The major fundraising activity each year has been a Pink Ribbon Breakfast, as well as regular ongoing support for local organisations in need.
WHERE WE MEET
The Bellarine Women’s Network meets on the third Thursday of each month, gathering for an evening meal, conversation, and connection. Our meetings are relaxed and welcoming, offering a chance to catch up with others in the community.
Most gatherings feature an engaging guest speaker, along with updates on local initiatives, community news, and our ongoing fundraising activities.
We also hold an Annual General Meeting each year for financial members. Membership is available for $10 per year, although participation in our monthly meetings does not require membership.
For further information, please email admin@bellarinewomensnetwork.org.au.
Who we support
For more than seven years, the Bellarine Women’s Network has been dedicated to raising funds that make a meaningful difference in our community. While the majority of our support has focused on cancer research, our members have also championed many local initiatives that promote dignity, safety, creativity, and social connection.
Through raffles, community events, and our annual Pink Ribbon fundraiser, we have donated close to $80,000 and provided substantial in‑kind goods to organisations including the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Danihers Drive, Food Assist 3223, Share the Dignity, Hope in a Suitcase, NeuroEndocrine Cancer Australia, Bellarine Peninsula Arts, KMG Community Bus, Bellarine Quilters, Sexual Assault & Family Violence, Breakthrough T1D, and Sustainable Housing for Older Women.
Our collective efforts demonstrate the strength of community action and our commitment to supporting those who need it most.
The Bellarine Women's Network is proudly supported by Bendigo Community Bank
We encourage you to bank with Bendigo Bank and follow them on facebook to learn more about their incredible community support.
