Happy International Women’s Day! Whether you’re an aunt or …that other word that ends in u-n-t, we’re honoured to be fighting on the same team 🫡 #internationalwomensday



We couldn't have said it better. Thanks Councillor Bravo for being the #PowerofUs champion at City Hall.

Last week, I was happy to share the @TorontoFdn’s Vital Signs Report with City Council. The report's findings are clear—building connection and supporting social infrastructure is important for our collective wellbeing. #PowerOfUs
