Corporate Partners

Capital One knows that women are disproportionately impacted by the stress of economic uncertainty. Women face deep, complex barriers that affect many areas of their lives, and the support they need to tackle these barriers is vast. That’s why Capital One is proud to sponsor the Canadian Women’s Foundation Economic Development and Community Needs Grants. These two initiatives hold special meaning for Capital One, who believes in enriching the communities that support Canadians and their financial well-being.

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.

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.

Like the Canadian Women’s Foundation, Canadian Western Bank recognizes the importance of inclusivity for the success and growth of our country. By supporting the Foundation’s Economic Development funding, they invest in programs that strengthen financial empowerment and drive economic prosperity for women, girls, and gender-diverse people across the country.

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.

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.
