At the Women’s Y Foundation, we firmly believe in the power of collective commitment. Every act of generosity, every meaningful connection, and every voice raised in support of our mission helps advance gender equality and create lasting, tangible change in the lives of women, girls, and their families.
Our 2026–2027 Ambassadors embody this commitment. Through their presence, influence, and ability to engage their networks, they help amplify the Foundation’s reach and raise awareness among a growing audience about the realities women face every day.
Individuals United Around a Shared Mission
Serving as an Ambassador goes far beyond representation. It reflects a genuine commitment to placing one’s network, experience, and voice in service of a cause that drives meaningful change.
Throughout their term, our Ambassadors take part in a wide range of awareness, engagement, and fundraising initiatives. Their involvement helps build new relationships, increase awareness of our work, and strengthen support for the programs of the Montreal Women’s Y.
Thanks to their dedication, the Women’s Y Foundation can continue supporting services that promote the autonomy, safety, well-being, and personal growth for women and girls.

At the Heart of Our Initiatives
Throughout their 2026–2027 term, our ambassadors have participated in, or will participate in, several of the foundation’s signature initiatives, including:
- The Presidents’ Cocktail
- The Designer Pop-Up Boutique, presented in collaboration with La Gouvernance au Féminin and Caroline Codsi
- The 150 Fundraisers for 150 Years of Impact campaign
- Bromont Ultra 2026

These events and campaigns offer meaningful ways to support our mission. You can participate, engage your network, make a donation, launch a fundraiser, or help shine a spotlight on women transforming their communities.
Each initiative provides an opportunity to bring together individuals and organizations that share the belief that when women have access to the resources, support, and opportunities they need to reach their full potential, the entire community benefits.
Be part of the change
The strength of our mission lies in the commitment of our community. Whether you choose to make a donation, participate in an event, organize a fundraiser, become a partner, or help raise awareness of our initiatives, every contribution has the power to make a meaningful difference.
