Once we are allowed to we will resume our morning coffees and other activities.
We are a group of female Hawthorn FC members, supporters and friends. You do not have to be an HFC member to become a Thornbird!
We run various social and fundraising activities during the year – day, night, and weekends where possible so everyone can join us during the year. The Thornbirds have a Glenferrie Gold membership with the Hawthorn museum; our own paver under the John Kennedy statue and will do any other donating or fundraising as required by the club. We raise funds for the football club through our sponsorship of three senior players – Jack Gunston, Ricky Henderson and this year we are sponsoring Will Day, which we are delighted to be doing.
We have supported our VFLW team and will do so in 2020 depending if we get a team on the ground.
Also we support many worthwhile charities such as the Good Friday Appeal, Ovarian Cancer, Cancer Council and a Domestic Violence Service in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, and many others.
