For the month of March, local skincare brand Sigi Skin will donate 10 per cent of their proceeds for the month to HSCA Dayspring Residential Treatment Centre. The centre helps young teenage girls who have suffered from abuse to successfully reintegrate into their families and schools by providing them with a safe and caring environment where they can heal. Sigi Skin products are available here. 

Feeling thirsty? From now until 16 April, buy selected products from convenience store 7-Eleven and the company will donate part of their sales to Daughters of Tomorrow as part of their “Celebrate The Power Of Pink” initiative. Daughters of Tomorrow is a non-profit organisation that supports programmes and services for women from low-income families.

Flaunt your girl power in any of these six exclusive t-shirts designed by six female designers: Victoria Beckham, Isabel Marant, Ellery, Rosie Assoulin, Alexa Chung and Perfect Moment. Not only will you look fab, you’ll also be helping vulnerable women as proceeds will go to benefiting Women for Women International, a non-profit organisation that helps women living in war-torn countries to rebuild their lives. Each t-shirt boasts a unique image or slogan that showcases the designers’ interpretations of women’s empowerment and courage. Victoria Beckham’s piece features her own handwriting and the phrase “I am her” to display concepts of sisterhood and compassion, while Isabel Marant’s vibrant and uplifting “You Go Girl!” encourages and applauds women. Get a piece for yourself, and your mum and gal pals while you’re at it. From $120, available here.
