Ensuring that women have equal opportunities in all aspects of life, live a safe life free from violence, and gain the self-confidence to build their own futures is not only a matter of justice but also a fundamental condition for a prosperous society. The Canadian Women’s Foundation exerts an extraordinary effort to touch the lives of disadvantaged women and girls across Canada, lifting them out of the cycle of poverty and violence, and elevating them to the leadership roles they deserve in social life.
