Elsa Vilarinho

Each donation makes it easier for women to succeed in their new professional project.

“For several years now, the cause of the Lise Watier Foundation has appealed to me as a woman, but above all, as a professional woman. Not everyone arrives on this earth with the same opportunities to succeed in life. That’s why it’s so important to have organizations that make sure we do. I feel privileged to have been surrounded and propelled by professionals who believed in me, and I wish in turn to offer this same opportunity to other women, through the Lise Watier Foundation.”

Write an encouraging message


The participants of the Let’s Start Up program of the Lise Watier Foundation have experienced situations of vulnerability. They are now working hard to find their way back to financial independence. Help them believe in themselves and spread their wings by writing them an encouraging message! 

$5 will be donated by our partner la Vie en Rose for each message written.

Graduate of the Entrepreneurship Program

The Lise Watier Foundation offers the Let’s Start Up Pathway in Montreal, Quebec City, the Laurentians, Montérégie, Sherbrooke and Toronto. More than 300 women a year are committed to taking action through the Let’s Start Up Pathway. 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.
