Waikato Women's Fund invites you to 'Still We Rise: The Work Continues'
We’ve come a long way—but there’s still work to do.
This isn’t a gala. It’s a gathering. A rally cry. A night for the women who keep showing up - for themselves, for each other, and for the generations coming next.
Charlotte Twigg is a powerhouse. She brings truth, fire, fatigue—and hope.
She’ll speak to what it means to lead, to rise, to rest, and to keep going anyway.
We won’t pretend everything’s fine. But we will remind each other: this work, while unfinished, is already changing the world.
