We are thrilled to invite you to participate in Women in Nonprofit Awareness Day (WNAD) on October 21, a new national initiative led by the Women’s Nonprofit Network (WNN) to honour the essential contributions of women leaders across Canada’s nonprofit sector.
Why This Matters
Women make up over 80% of Canada’s nonprofit workforce, powering communities with skill, heart, and resilience; yet their work often goes unrecognized. WNAD is about visibility, recognition, and celebration.
How You Can Get Involved
Celebrate Women Leaders: Share stories, profiles, or achievements of the women leading your organization.
Host Mini-Events or Panels: Organize a local roundtable, workshop, or virtual panel to highlight women in your community.
Share on Social Media: Post tributes, stories, or recognition using our hashtag .
Tag the Women’s Nonprofit Network: Instagram: | LinkedIn: /womensnonprofitnetwork
Amplify Voices: Re-share stories from WNN and spotlight women making an impact in your network, including our award winners, who will be announced in conjunction with WNAD.
