Dentelle et Veston noirs, an initiative of the National Bank of Canada

29 Sep 2022

On September 21st, the first edition of the Dentelle et Veston Noirs event organized by the National Bank of Canada to celebrate women took place on the Montreal bateau-mouche. More than $6,500 was donated to the Lise Watier Foundation from the proceeds of the silent auction!

Helping women achieve financial independence has always been at the center of the values of the National Bank of Canada, which has been a precious ally for the Foundation for many years. A huge thank you for this generous contribution and this inspiring initiative!

Graduate of the Let’s Start Up Program

The Lise Watier Foundation offers the Let’s Start Up program in Montreal, Toronto, Quebec City, the Laurentians and Montérégie. More than 200 women a year are committed to taking action through the Let’s Start Up program. They graduate with a better understanding of their strengths and skills, as well as the knowledge and tools to implement their professional project. Women thus begin a new journey towards financial independence through entrepreneurship, a return to school or a more fulfilling job.
