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

“I support the Fondation Lise Watier because I deeply believe in the power of autonomy. Giving women the tools to rebuild confidence, rise again, and shape their future transforms far more than an individual journey—it creates a lasting impact on families and on society as a whole. Supporting this cause means investing in women’s dignity, strength, and potential.”

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.

The Lise Watier Foundation offers the Let’s Start Up Pathway in Montreal, Quebec City, the Laurentians, Montérégie, Sherbrooke, Drummondville and Toronto. More than 350 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.
