Quinte International Women’s Day is back for another year! Together, let’s help forge gender equality through abundant giving.
The Theme for this year’s celebration is “Give to Gain”. Give To Gain emphasizes the power of reciprocity and support. When people, organizations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase. Giving is not a subtraction, it’s intentional multiplication. When women thrive, we all rise!
This year, the event will feature various brunch food stations, a cash mimosa bar, giveaways, and a chance to hear from some of Quinte’s leading women in business.
Special thanks to our sponsors; Business Development Bank of Canada, Futurpreneur, Centre For Workforce Development and Launch Lab. We couldn’t do it without their support!
