A weekend of service and sisterhood in Ottawa

On November 18th weekend, we travelled from Toronto, Buffalo and Watertown run an incredible day of workshops  and a successful fundraiser in Ottawa.

We were thrilled to partner with the Pinecrest-Queensway Community Health Centre to bring our signature program, the Young Women's Empowrhoment Initiative (YWEI), to the the nation's capital.

During the  incredible Saturday of learning and self-discovery, we had young women from the surrounding neighbourhood participate in enagaging workshops focused on:

• Self love & healthy friendships
• Personal financial literacy
• Being an Entrepreneur

The evening was filled with fun and competition for our bowling fundraiser event. From YWEI to the fundraiser, we thank our dear friends and family that came out to support our initiatives during the wonderful weekend.

We would like to thank Sagal Osman from Pinecrest-Queensway Community Health Centre, Yamikani Msosa from Ubuntu Ottawa, Penelope Chandler from TD Bank, and Meron Berhe from Bantu for their support and sponsorship in making the 2016 Young Women's Empowrhoment Initiative a success!

LNS & SQ will take you up on the #mannequinchallenge! □ We had such a wonderful time with these young women! #YWEI2016 #7kfounderschallenge #canadiampoodles #sigmagammarho #sgrho #sgrho1922 #prettypoodles
