Corporate Partners

The Canadian Women’s Foundation has embarked on a collaborative initiative with Catalyst Canada, YWCA Canada, and Plan International Canada aimed at breaking down barriers to women’s economic inclusion. Funded by the RBC Foundation, the  In Good Company  project leverages the knowledge gained through our grant-making and evaluation about the obstacles diverse women face to accessing quality, well-paid, and sustainable employment with a view to identifying corporate champions who can bring about real change in their workplaces. In Addition, RBC has been a long-time supporter of our Economic Development Program.

Royal LePage real estate agents and their clients are working to create safer homes and safer communities by raising funds to help women and children who have experienced violence. This is done through donations of commissions on the sale of homes, and participation in local and national fundraising events. Funds donated to the Canadian Women’s Foundation are used to support violence prevention programs from coast to coast.

Scotiabank has been a national partner of the Foundation since 1994, and proudly supports programs that help women move themselves out of poverty and toward economic independence through training in self-employment, skilled trades, technology, and social enterprise.

CN and the Unifor Social Justice Fund proudly support the Canadian Women’s Foundation’s Girls’ Fund. Through programs supported by this fund, girls and non-binary youth build confidence, belonging, and leadership skills in safe, empowering spaces where they can be themselves and thrive. CN is helping to build safer, stronger, more sustainable, and prosperous communities, and the Unifor Social Justice Fund works in solidarity by promoting, collaborating with, and supporting national and international NGOs, community organizations, advocacy groups, and trade unions.

Green Shield Canada believes that all Canadians should have access to the services they need to improve their health and well-being, but for too many that’s not a reality. This is why they focus their social impact on improving access to mental and oral health-care, and are proud to partner with the Canadian Women’s Foundation to support critical mental health services for women.

As a National Partner of the Girls’ Fund at the Canadian Women’s Foundation, TC Energy helps gives girls and non-binary youth the tools to develop into confident, resilient people, right when they need this support the most.
