What if seeking lifesaving health care meant facing discrimination, harassment and even violence? Millions of women, girls and members of the LGBTQ+ community are discouraged from accessing health care, or even denied treatment, because of stigma regarding their gender, sexual orientation or health status. This gift will challenge the root causes of these stigmas by helping to dispel misinformation and change mindsets. Specialized sensitization trainings for health workers and community leaders will contribute to ensuring that everyone can assert their right to health care. Workshops will help empower marginalized individuals to safely access and advocate for their rights, and community centres will provide them with medical, legal and psychological services. With this gift, you will help transform health systems to become more inclusive to all so every person can survive and thrive as their authentic selves.

Help refugees access urgent life-saving resources while also providing long-term support to assist in their recovery.

Girls Belong Everywhere
Girls' perspectives belong everywhere decisions are made. This gift engages girls in Canada and around the world, including those in refugee camps, in decision making. Through seat shares, advisory panels, innovation hubs, consultation sessions and more, this gift helps girls have meaningful interactions with governments, corporations and civil-society organizations. It supports training for girls that builds their leadership skills as well as community sessions for girls' perspectives to be both heard and factored into decisions.
Help End Global Hunger
No child should go hungry – and this gift can help make sure they never do. Through both food distribution and agricultural support, this gift helps ensure that girls and families in regions most challenged by climate change not only have nourishing meals for a day but also their own sustainable sources for a full, healthy lifetime.
