Helping New Zealand create confident, resilient + independent young girls
Forward Foundation is a New Zealand registered charity. Founded in 2012, the charity's mission is to empower girls through sport & active recreation, helping to create contributing community members who are confident, resilient and independent. We do this by making sport & active recreation a positive experience for all girls, increasing the number of girls participating in sport
and allowing them to use the experience to develop life skills in their own time and unique way.

What's Hot | Not-So-Sports Club
After a successful pilot, our Not-So-Sports Club (NSSC) will continue to be full time in 2022. We know traditional sport isn't for everyone, so we've created a club that's fun, free and just for girls. The NSSC offers recreation activities and a chance to make new friends every Wednesday afternoon of the school term for high school aged girls in Canterbury.
Term 2, 2022 we will be running the NSSC in Christchurch (Hillmorton, Hornby, and Papanui) and in Selwyn (Rolleston and Lincoln). If you are interested in particiating in the programmes or are interested in us starting a programmme at your school, please contact us at hello@forwardfoundation.co.nz.
