It's in the bag

To support the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on 25 November, UNSW invites you to participate in the ‘It’s in the Bag’ campaign.

‘It’s in the Bag’, run by Australian Charity Share the Dignity, aims to assist women and girls experiencing homelessness, poverty and domestic violence. You can get involved by donating a new or no longer used handbag (in good condition) with brand-new toiletries (packaged and unopened) inside, which will be passed on to women in need.

Donate a handbag from Monday 25 November to Thursday 5 December at one of the UNSW locations listed below. Late donations won’t be accepted.

Your handbag should contain the following essential items:

  • Shampoo
  • Conditioner
  • Toothbrush
  • Toothpaste
  • Soap
  • Deodorant
  • Tampons
  • Pads

Additional items are also welcome.
