Leading women in philanthropy

In a world where inequality persists, it’s essential to celebrate those who are fighting for a more just future. This month, IDEA highlights female philanthropists and women-led organizations who are working tirelessly to make a difference in society. Their commitment is a source of inspiration and an example of female leadership, helping to promote gender equality and combat disparities.

On the international stage – women who inspire action
Female philanthropists play a key role in fields ranging from education, to health, and to the fight against poverty. Prominent voices, such as Malala Yousafzai and Oprah Winfrey, embody this desire to change the world, but many women are also working locally to improve living conditions for vulnerable populations and promote women’s empowerment.

Female-led organizations in Quebec
Many local women-led initiatives are making a tangible difference. These organizations, both large and small, work tirelessly to defend women’s rights, combat discrimination, and provide essential resources for women’s empowerment, particularly in more isolated communities. From large foundations to small community initiatives, they all contribute to profound and lasting change, supporting women in their quest for equality and opportunity.

We invite you to discover these inspiring women and support their actions for a fairer world.
