International Women's Day - 2026
2026-03-08
This year, as we embrace the International Women’s Day theme, “Given to Gain,” we are reminded that when women give — whether it is wisdom, support, time, encouragement, or love — we do not lose; we grow stronger together. Giving creates connection. Sharing creates strength. Supporting one another creates lasting impact.
Through our virtual gathering, “Sister, Let’s Talk,” we create a safe space to give our voices, our stories, and our experiences — and in doing so, we gain understanding, healing, empowerment, and unity. When sisters come together to talk openly and honestly, we build community, inspire courage, and rise collectively.
