Who we have worked with.
Thursday Girls
Thursday Girls provide a safe supportive space for women and their partners dealing with the challenges of living with advanced, or metastatic, breast cancer (MBC) through free weekly therapy and support groups.
The organisation relies on donations and philanthropic grants to deliver its important work. With very limited funding, many of the women who joined Thursday Girls needing support for their own journey with MBC have had to step in to manage the operational and governance requirements of the organisation.
In 2023/2024 makr partnered with Thursday Girls as our inaugural makr Difference program partner. We:
-
Conducted an operational review - identifying opportunities to strengthen the organisation and solve for resourcing challenges
-
Facilitated Thursday Girls' annual planning day
While the makr Difference partnership with Thursday Girls is officially at a close, we remain a firm advocate and will continue to support them as best we can.

Rachael and the makr team facilitated a key Planning Day for our Not-for-Profit, Thursday Girls. They conducted a deep dive into our organisation and produced some really helpful next steps on how we needed to reshape our board and operations to prepare for the future. Rachael’s sensitivity was just the right approach to our group of hard-working volunteers and counsellors. Thanks Rachael for all you have done.
