Support Black Women's Spaces

August Inc. is an inclusive collective in Sydney for Black Women of African descent. Our aim is to enrich, support, empower and uplift Black Women through self-care.

August Inc. is collectively celebrating black womanhood in all its glorious forms. We are based in Sydney, Australia and founded by two unapologetically black women.

For us self-care is about finding a space to belong. It is about being true to yourself and breathing in all that is authentically you. As Black Women we are the same but different and we believe that leaning on one another and coming together helps us mentally and physically to face a world that was not necessarily built for us.

We run events that are free to low cost in order to make them as accessible as possible to all Black Women, we also often open the space for non-black people to learn. An upcoming event is Sister Solace; a healing circle for Black Women in a challenging time.

Past spaces/ events included:
- Radical Parenting; unpacking racism
- A Focus on Feminism. Intersectionality NOW!
- WoC Solidarity: Moving beyond performative allyship
- Sistahood Picnics

We are raising money to support continued work in this space and creating more spaces and events to support the needs of Black Women now and ongoing. The funds raised will go directly to pay Black Women who facilitate events (eg. therapist, panel members etc) and to fund the costs of running the events in order to make the events as low cost and even free!

Your contribution is much appreciated.
