As we continue to celebrate B Corp Month this March, we’re also recognizing International Women’s Day this week. We’re a women-owned B Corp and we get inspired by seeing the achievements of women and girls all around us!
To recognize International Women’s Day, we want to shine a spotlight on some women-led B Corps that inspire us:
- Ramp Communications: The thoughtful creative team at Ramp helps organizations grow their impact through brand strategy and campaign work. We’ve teamed up with Ramp on a number of really fun projects and we love the creative energy they bring!
- Laridae: This Peterborough-based management consulting and training firm does fantastic work with non-profits. They build capacity and lasting change in organizations, and we love how well that complements the work we do to support evaluation and continuous learning in some of the same organizations.
- Cheekbone Beauty: A few of our team members adore the cosmetics this Indigenous-owned company puts out. Their makeup is high quality and sustainably produced, and the company shows its commitment to environmental stewardship and supporting Indigenous causes.
And we want to give a shout out to some of our clients who are doing important work to advance gender equity:
- The UN Global Compact Network Canada is a partner on Canada’s 50-30 Challenge with the goal of achieving gender parity and significant representation of underrepresented groups in leadership within Canadian organizations. Check out their capacity building workshops for organizations that want to incorporate diversity and inclusion, gender equality, human rights, decent work principles, and sustainable development goals into their organizational culture and operations.
- The Canadian Women’s Foundation has been working to shift attitudes and conversations around gender-based violence. They have been creating and sharing resources to help people know how to respond when someone has disclosed gender-based violence. Get the Foundation’s free tools at the link above, including a great guide you can use in your workplace.
We invite you to join us in honoring, uplifting, and supporting the remarkable women in your life! Let’s continue towards a world where every woman has the opportunity to thrive and every business is a force for good.
Happy International Women’s Day from all of us at Cathexis!
