LISE WATIER FOUNDATION

about

OUR MISSION

Active since 2009, the Lise Watier Foundation is driven by the desire to help women who have been living in a state of economic or social vulnerability to regain confidence in their ability to succeed and to take their future into their own hands according to their talents and aspirations.

By providing them with the concrete means to develop their skills, we are offering these women the tools they need to reach their full potential and achieve long-term financial independence.

By offering training, individual coaching and financial assistance, we can help these women to surpass themselves and ensure a better future for themselves and their children.

Even today, the face of poverty in Quebec remains primarily female. Women are the most highly represented in precarious employment and head 85% of single-parent families. Twenty-one percent of these single mothers live below the poverty line.

OUR VALUES

The following values are at the heart of all our reflections and actions:

Respect

Compassionate and non-judgmental acknowledgement and appreciation of each woman’s unique value and potential

Commitment

A commitment to wholeheartedly and generously investing in, and contributing to, both individual and collective well-being

Collaboration

Mutual support, teamwork and pooling of strengths and experiences so that together, we have an impact and make a difference.
