The Foundation’s annual Benefit Evening is the flagship fundraising event in support of the Women’s Centre of Montreal. Presented as a cocktail-style reception, the evening offers a warm and elegant setting that encourages conversation, networking, and collective engagement.
For the 2026 edition, the theme One Voice, A Thousand Echoes highlights the power and impact of collective commitment: that of a woman finding her voice, a partner stepping forward, a volunteer offering support, a donor believing in change. From these resonances emerges a collective movement— ripple of solidarity that reaches far beyond the initial impact.
Each year, the event brings together allies of the cause, partners, and friends around a shared mission: help women help themselves by providing tools to improve their living conditions and empowering them to play an active role in their community.
Your presence and support directly contribute to the delivery of essential services, programs, and resources to women who need them most. Together, we can make a meaningful and lasting difference in the lives of women in Montreal.
