Empowering Women in Philanthropy
Women are the heartbeat of healthcare. They are the caregivers, the decision-makers, and the advocates who ensure that quality healthcare thrives—not just for themselves, but for their families, communities, and generations to come.
That’s why we’re proud to introduce Healthcare Lives with Women—a groundbreaking new initiative dedicated to empowering women as leaders, advocates, and philanthropists in healthcare. We aim to unite women through connection, education, and inspiration, creating a powerful network of changemakers committed to shaping the future of healthcare in Canada.
Our Mission: Empower, Amplify, Engage, Unite
At the heart of this initiative are four key pillars: celebrating women’s philanthropic leadership, amplifying trusted voices in medicine, engaging healthcare professionals as ambassadors, and harnessing the strength of community to drive meaningful support. Together, we’re building a healthier tomorrow—one woman, one voice, one gift at a time.
