Today on March 8, 2026, we recognize International Women’s Day across our Agency and within the communities we serve.
At the Children’s Aid Society of Toronto, women play a vital role in advancing our work every day. This includes the leadership and contributions of women across our Board, senior leadership team, staff, partners, alternate caregivers, community collaborators, and the families we support.
The 2026 International Women’s Day theme, Give to Gain, highlights a simple yet powerful idea: progress happens when we support one another. When time, knowledge, mentorship, advocacy, and opportunity are shared, pathways open, and our communities and workplaces become stronger.
On this day, we want to further amplify the voices and perspectives of women within our Agency and beyond who stand with us in supporting and upholding our mandate. We asked members of our community: Why is it meaningful to you to contribute to an organization that is committed to supporting and empowering women both internally and through the work we do in our communities?
Their reflections and insights are captured in the quotes below.
