“As honorary co-chairs of the 2023 Women of Distinction and Inspirationelle Awards, we invite you to join us in celebrating women’s achievements and supporting the YWCA Montreal. The work of this organization makes a real difference in the lives of women and girls, offering them an understanding ear as it accompanies them in their socio-economic (re)integration in a safe environment. Let’s mobilize our efforts and invest in the unlimited potential of women and girls to build an egalitarian, inclusive and non-violent society.” Edith Cloutier and Geneviève Cloutier

Since 1994, the Women of Distinction Awards recognize the role of women in the advancement of society by bringing women to light who, through their commitment and achievements in their respective fields, have a positive and lasting impact in the society.

The award is unique, particularly because of the diversity of its recipients. Over the past 28 years, 322 exceptional women and three men have received this award with pride in their respective categories.

In 2015, Inspirationnelle was established to complement the Women of Distinction Awards to honour young women from various sectors.

The Women of Distinction Awards and Inspirationnelle aim to support the YWCA Montreal’s mission, whose mission is to build a better future for women and girls.

Our vision: an inclusive and egalitarian society where women and girls have the power to reach their full potential.
