Geneviève Biron

Two values that my mother passed on to my sisters and I during our childhood were the importance of financial independence and solidarity. It is thus natural and with great pleasure that I support the Let’s Start Up program, in order to allow the Lise Watier Foundation to empower women in vulnerable economic situations. Financial autonomy has always been at the heart of women’s development and, by the same reason, of society. It is by standing together that we can make a difference.

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 EPIDERMA for each message written. 

Thank you for believing in them.

Having access to training, personalized support, an expanded professional network and financial aid can transform a woman’s life. The Foundation and its campaign ambassadors are convinced of this, and we are therefore inviting you to join support for the Believe in her campaign. Thank you for your precious support!

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.
