Charitable Partner
CanWCC’s work is focused on economic & gender equity, but we're deeply conscious of the broader challenges that affect our community.
Honoring this, we partner with a limited number of charitable organizations and support and promote their specific campaign within our community and/or partners network.
These collaborations are selected with purpose and intention to extend support to our members in areas that lie beyond our direct advocacy focus but that are nonetheless crucial to our members’ well-being and success.
Through these partnerships, we aim to offer our members a platform that not only supports them in their entrepreneurial journey but also supports their overall welfare by shining a light on important causes and initiatives.

Educational Partners
If your organization — whether you’re a business, incubator, accelerator, or another entity — provides educational services and aims to supercharge/uplift women entrepreneurs, you would be an ideal fit as a CanWCC Educational Partner.
In our quest to arm our members with the knowledge, skills, and support necessary to start and scale their ventures to new heights, we actively collaborate with organizations and help them deliver on their educational mandates by connecting them directly to our members, community and partner network.
Our Educational Partners have access to a thriving community of women business owners in Canada to offer, and promote their educational programs directly, while also elevating your organization's DEI profile by ensuring you are reaching a wide cross-section of equity-deserving founders.
We are on the lookout for Educational Partners who are excited to help women-owned businesses succeed and are ready to engage with our https://fts.canwcc.ca/ program.

Ecosystem Partners
Ecosystem Partners are organizations that include: CoWorking businesses, Chambers of Commerce, or other nonprofits focused on women's advocacy, economic development, entrepreneurship support, and gender equity initiatives.
These organizations stand shoulder-to-shoulder with us, actively paving the way for women business owners in Canada. Engaged deeply in efforts that mirror or complement CanWCC’s unwavering commitment to gender and economic equity, these partners initiate and support projects ranging from women's entrepreneurship to the broader aspects of feminist policy and economics.
Ecosystem Partner activities intertwine with CanWCC’s mission, vision and values, fostering a strong network aimed at dismantling barriers, promoting inclusivity, and advocating for systemic changes to lift up women and non-binary entrepreneurs.
We invite you to take the first step towards making a lasting impact. Share your details with us through the form below, and let’s schedule a discovery call.
Our partnership can drive the change we both want to see in the world.
Media Partners
The news industry has had a rough time since the internet forever changed their core business plan. We have since seen the decline of independent outlets, and a decline in investigative journalism, due to the economics of long-form reporting. These factors, along with the systemic biases inherent in the funding and news media ecosystems, mean these crucial organizations need all our support.
We're looking for media outlets that report with integrity and shine a spotlight on topics and issues that impact women’s entrepreneurship in Canada, including feminist policy and economics, and who advance gender equity through investigative journalism.
Partnership details coming soon, express your interest by filling out the form below and let’s schedule a discovery call.

Sponsorships
In our mission to nurture and elevate women’s entrepreneurship and advocate for gender and economic equity, sponsors play a pivotal role.
Your support goes beyond financial contributions; it is not only an investment in the future of equitable business landscapes but also a crucial contribution to Canada’s economic growth. By advancing gender equality and boosting women’s enterprises, Canada could add $150 billion to its GDP by 2026 (Devillard et al., McKinsey & Company, 2017). This makes your involvement not just a catalyst for social change but also a strategic economic investment.
This sponsorship grants your organization access to potential future customers, enhances your brand recognition, opens up networking opportunities, increases employee engagement through meaningful corporate social responsibility, and provides media and publicity benefits to further elevate your brand.
Our sponsors are more than funders; they are partners in change, champions of social innovation, and ardent supporters who believe in the extraordinary potential of women entrepreneurs to propel Canada’s economy into the stratosphere.
Please fill out the form below, and let’s start a conversation about partnership opportunities. Together, we can create a lasting impact.
