In honor of International Women's Day, L'Oréal Paris Canada will be taking a new approach to its Women of Worth program in 2024.
Since the program launch in 2017, this philanthropic initiative has honored an exceptional group of strong, diverse, and passionate women leaders, who continue to work tirelessly to implement local and global change, while bringing hope to Canadians. These leaders devote their time, resources, heart and soul into finding innovative programs, inspiring solutions, and providing crucial support to their communities and beyond.
In previous years, the annual Women of Worth program highlighted 10 remarkable women who redefined generosity, lived with extraordinary purpose and worked hard to heal and grow their communities, each receiving a $10,000 grant for their non-profit cause as well as a national platform to share their stories.
Over the past 6 years, L'Oréal Paris Canada has bestowed over $660,000 dollars across 60 Canadian organizations, which often included the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse, food insecurity, support of marginalized communities and underserved youth, environmental sustainability, the development of platforms for BIPOC communities, and many more.
"The L'Oréal Paris Women of Worth program is near and dear to our hearts. Each year, honoring women who selflessly advocate for change, strengthening their communities and bringing people together." said Edouard Hottebart, general manager, L'Oréal Paris Canada. "But, as the world's number 1 beauty brand, we need to go beyond the program from being exclusive, to a much larger scale program that can honor all Canadian women and allow us to connect deeper with our consumers."
To date, L'Oréal Paris and Right to have trained 1.5 million people across 42 countries. In 2023, L'Oréal Paris Canada plans to train 150,000 Canadians, helping L'Oréal Paris globally hit its objective of 2 million people trained by the end of 2023.
