SUMMARY:March 8 - International Women's Day
DESCRIPTION:Every year on March 8\, International Women’s Day (IWD) is recognized and celebrated around the world.

Giving to women’s equality can be in a number of ways: donating to organizations that serve women\, reducing barriers for women in the workplace and in society\, recognizing and celebrating the contributions of women\, ensuring that safety and respect are universally and consistently maintained\, giving women rights and freedoms related to their health and bodies\, and much more. Learn more by visiting the IWD website \nWhere women are supported to thrive\, everyone benefits!

SUMMARY:Soup Sisters Winnipeg - Soup-Making Event
DESCRIPTION:Soup Sisters Winnipeg has supported Willow Place for over ten years. Currently they plan four soup-making events a year\, graciously supported by the Fairmont Hotel Winnipeg\, who provides professional kitchen and staff to assist with soup-making\, shops and partially prepares ingredients; and provides serving staff for the event.
