Right now, every dollar you give to the Canadian Women’s Foundation will be matched by H&M.
Here’s why your support matters.
• In Grade six, 36% of girls say they feel confident. By Grade 10 that number drops to just 14%.
• By age 12, one in four girls reports symptoms of anxiety or depression.
• Almost half of sexual assaults in Canada happen to women and girls between the ages of 15 and 24.
• The risks are even greater for those who are Indigenous, Black, gender-diverse, or living with disabilities.
But your gift today can change this.
When you give to the Canadian Women’s Foundation, you support programs that help girls and gender-diverse youth build confidence, develop leadership skills, learn about healthy relationships, and access the support they need to cope with challenges. And just as importantly, they provide safe, empowering spaces where they can be themselves and thrive.
You can help girls and gender-diverse young people grow through:
• STEM and media literacy programs.
• Indigenous cultures and connection initiatives.
• Sports and physical activity opportunities.
• Mentorship and leadership development.
And your gift doesn’t stop there. You’ll also help fund vital programs in every province and territory that support women, girls, and gender-diverse people facing poverty, violence, discrimination, and inequality.
Until October 11, every single donation is matched by H&M up to a total of $10,000.
This work is urgent. Girls and gender-diverse youth cannot afford to wait.
Make your gift today and double your impact for International Day of the Girl.
