Very nice.

Who is funding this young lady’s rescue? What was her objective?

I believe Quantas donated the flyby, and various other sponsors are pitching in.

Her objective was to sail solo around the world... and write a book about it.

I believe the Australian government said they are picking up the tab.

Can't say for sure, but the Aussie's generosity may have something to do with an earlier rescue (1942) in the Coral Sea.
