TESTIMONIES
International Women Foundation has been a blessing to me. As a new immigrant in Canada who is willing to pursue entrepreneurship, this
organization’s Business and entrepreneurship support team really helped me with all the tools, education, resources and network to launch my
business….. Alice B.
The one on one counselling support that I got from the Eradicating GBV: Balance Living Symposium program really helped to steer me in the
right path. When I thought my situation was hopeless, IWF came to the rescue with incredible support system to enable me believe in myself
once again……Tricia M.
There is nothing like having a community that listens especially when there are confidential thoughts to share without one being judged. I
found International Women Foundation as a community that is completely designed and setup to support every woman and the girl child to rise
above their fears and succeed…..Angela H.
