Empowering women in need with free martial arts
Pink Belt Project empowers women in need by gifting them with scholarships providing one year of FREE Taekwondo (or other traditional martial arts) training at their nearest club.
The project was started by West Australian Taekwondo Black Belt mum Kristy Hitchens aka The Mortal Mouse Taekwondo Blogger and is backed by Australian Taekwondo.
Fundraising for 2021 Pink Belt Scholarships is now underway.
Scholarship applications will open in October, 2020.
