To Fund:
From November 28-29, the Poppy Barley Future Fund is donating 100% of profits, up to $15,000, to KidSport to cover girls’ sport registration fees.
The decline in girls’ confidence can be linked to a handful of challenges, one being a lack of engagement in hobbies and sports.
Girls who play sports have higher levels of confidence and self-esteem and lower levels of depression. This carries into adulthood where they become strong and resilient leaders.
Perceptions of cost, access, low confidence, lack of feeling welcome, and safety concerns are more prevalently reported barriers for girls of lower-income households.
A contribution of $15,000 to KidSport will cover the registration fees of 50 girls, allowing them to stay in the game.

All girls deserve an equal opportunity to engage in sport, build their confidence, reduce the risk of depression, and learn to be leaders.
