THE WHY
& THE HOW 

THE WHY

We were highly motivated and inspired by the success of Project Growth and the way in which it was able to provide a sense of belonging and purpose for young males. Our hope for The Glow Project is that our tailored activities and social events will facilitate opportunities for socialising, teamwork, fun and creativity.

 

As young females ourselves, we know the importance of laughing, having fun, and developing meaningful friendships, and how this can impact our self-esteem and emotional wellbeing. With this in mind, we want to create a safe and supportive environment that will build confidence and encourage our girls to thrive and ‘glow’. 

THE HOW

The Glow Project runs out of a home base (located in Nerrina, Ballarat) where participants meet each morning. We begin the day by encouraging participants to socialise and interact, with access to electronics, games, books, arts and crafts, puzzles, and much more. Each day includes a planned activity that is tailored to the hobbies and interests of the participants, such as cooking and baking, socialising, and contributing to meaningful and ongoing projects.

 

The Glow Project program also includes regular access to the community, as we believe it is important for our girls to be active and experience life outside of the home base. Whilst regularly utilising venues within Ballarat, we also incorporate regular trips to Melbourne, Geelong, and other cities to keep the program exciting and unique.

OUR STORY

WHO IS
THE GLOW PROJECT

The Glow Project was created by two friends, Meg and Molly, with a shared goal to provide young females with disabilities the opportunity for fun and friendships, and to discover a place of belonging.

 

Both with industry experience, we believe in creating a supportive social network, combined with fun activities and opportunities for personal development. The Glow Project aims to support females to live a fulfilled life, and to live the life they desire. We are passionate about allowing these young women to ‘glow’ and become the best version of themselves.
