The Nellie McClung Foundation 20th Anniversary Luncheon
The Nellie McClung Foundation presents the 20th Anniversary Luncheon, in support of the ‘Yes I Can’ Leadership initiative. The luncheon will take place on November 5, 2024, at the Fairmont Hotel. It promises to be a celebration recognizing the accomplishments of the past 20 years and looking forward as we raise funds to help empower girls and women in Manitoba to become leaders in their community.
The event will feature a captivating fireside conversation with The Honourable Janice C. Filmon, C.M., O.M., former Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba and founding Chair of the Nellie McClung Foundation, alongside Shelagh Rogers, O.C., an iconic figure in Canadian broadcasting. Together, they will delve into a reflective discussion on their distinguished careers and the transformative influences that have molded them into trailblazers.
The Nellie McClung Foundation, while honouring the legacy of past trailblazers, works to empower, inspire, and celebrate girl and women leaders in the community. The ’Yes I Can’ Leadership Program will be tailored to young girls to develop life skills that will help them to feel empowered and encourage leadership.
