💚 The Providential Portrait: A Story That Sparked a Movement
Some stories change the course of a life.And sometimes, they start something far bigger.

When Betty Coracas penned The Providential Portrait, she didn’t just write a memoir about fate and friendship — she planted the seed for a movement that would live on beyond the final page.
Inspired by the extraordinary woman whose story is shared in this book, Betty was moved to create Bags for Earth & Science Inc., a charity driven by purpose, compassion, and the belief that small actions can create lasting change.
🌿 From Friendship to Philanthropy
What began as a story of connection became a call to action.Through The Providential Portrait, Betty experienced firsthand how one person’s kindness and courage can inspire others to give back.
That spirit became the foundation for Bags for Earth & Science Inc., a volunteer-led organisation that raises funds for medical research by selling environmentally friendly tote bags and hosting charity events and fundraisers. 50% of proceeds from the book goes directly to the charity to support medical research and environmental sustainability.
Each tote bag sold, each copy read, and each review shared contributes to a legacy of hope — proof that storytelling and science can unite to make the world a little better, one gesture at a time.
✨ A Legacy Inspired by Dame Elisabeth
Betty often speaks of her hope that Bags for Earth & Science Inc. will one day leave a mark as meaningful as the legacy of Dame Elisabeth Murdoch - a woman who embodied grace, generosity, and lifelong dedication to the community.
That vision is what drives this movement forward: to turn compassion into impact, to empower everyday people to make small sustainable choices, and to fund research that changes lives.
