Our Three
Strategic Priorities
Be a Champion:
Advocate and Create Lasting
Change
Achieving gender justice means
advocating so that all women, girls and
Two Spirit, trans, and non-binary people
get the full rights, support, and respect
they deserve. It means that we work
towards ensuring that communities have
maximum control over the resources they
need to be self-determined.
Be Bold:
Demonstrate our Impact
Harnessing our unique national reach
into all parts of Canada, the Foundation
will be a bold home base for donors
and corporate citizens who wish to
“be the change and see the change”
that reflects their values. Becoming an
obvious choice for donors today and for
future generations requires investment
in communications, marketing, and donor
cultivation strategies.
Be Steadfast:
Diversify and Invest in the
Future
Building on our strong track record, the
Foundation will grow into our outsized
role, strengthening our capacity to meet
new challenges and priorities. Ensuring
a healthy balance of government
support, philanthropic engagement, and
investment revenue, we will ensure we are
a resilient partner in the gender justice
sector and for change-leaders who wish to
be part of our work.
Realizing this plan involves renewed
investment in our infrastructure, people
and systems. We invite you to join us in
our compelling vision of what is possible.
The Canadian Women’s Foundation will
help the vision of a gender equal society
that benefits everyone, become possible.
We thank everyone
who gave their time
and energy to help
us chart a course
for the future of the
Canadian Women’s
Foundation.
