Millions of girls around the world are being denied their basic rights to education, health, nutrition, and safety.
Despite the incredible achievements of our Aussie Women's cricket team, on and off the pitch, there are still millions of girls around the world who are facing discrimination and obstacles that are impacting their futures.
Even before a girl is born, gender inequalities shape their lives, becoming even more pronounced in the teenage years, where many girls are unable to complete secondary school due to child and early marriage, pregnancy, unpaid domestic work, and lack of access to safety.
That’s why this summer we’re turning every appeal during the CommBank Women's Ashes Test into an appeal for gender equality.
By donating to UNICEF Australia and supporting the Appeal Appeal you’re giving girls around the world a chance to play, learn and lead with confidence and without limits.

Until every girl can play
45%
South Asia alone accounts for nearly 45 per cent of the world's 640 million child brides.
22%
Globally, 22 per cent of girls aged 15-19 are not in education, employment or training compared to 13 per cent of boys.
We're appealing for gender equality
Team up with Cricket Australia and UNICEF Australia to help build a brighter, more equitable future.

How will my donation help gender equality?
- $10 could contribute to education programs supporting girls in building skills for the 21st century.
- $24 could provide a girl with an empowerment pack that contains five reusable pads, one packet of paracetamol, seven exercise books and a school bag.
- $59 could help reach 100 girls with gender transformative programs, including challenging harmful norms and stereotypes, and services for her own health so that she can stay in school.
