International Women’s Day March 10
SNCC is proud to be once again hosting an IWD event for high school students at The HUB in Springwood this March.
The "Give To Gain Campaign" encourages a mindset of generosity and collaboration.
Give To Gain emphasizes the power of reciprocity & support. When people, organizations, & communities give generously, opportunities & support for women increase. Giving is not a subtraction, it's intentional multiplication. When women thrive, we all rise.
Whether through donations, knowledge, resources, infrastructure, visibility, advocacy, education, training, mentoring, or time, contributing to women's advancement helps create a more supportive and interconnected world.
What will you Give to Gain gender equality?
