Happy International Women's Day!

International Women’s Day and the week leading up to it is an opportunity to acknowledge the advancement of women and all of the successes achieved by women.  International Women’s Day (IWD) was first observed in 1911 in both Europe and America and has since grown to become a day of recognition and celebration in both developed and developing countries across the world.  In some countries, IWD is a national holiday!

 

International Women’s Day started as a political event and was primarily focused on women’s economic, political and social achievements.  Acknowledging advancements in each of these areas remains important and a focus of IWD, but it has expanded to also be a way to acknowledge all women as a form of respect and appreciation for all that women do—both publicly and privately.

 

 

Here at Warm Embrace, we are honoured to have so many fabulous women on our team! Our wonderful employees make a difference in their client’s lives every single day! We have fantastic women on our team who make a difference in a quiet way, selflessly meeting the needs of others. We want to acknowledge and publicly appreciate the wonderful women on our team for the meaningful service they diligently provide.


We are also inspired to serve elderly female clients, many of whom are well aware that women have made incredible progress; our elderly clients lived through an era that is quite different from today!  We are always amazed at the stories of bravery and triumph when our clients share details of how they fought for personal progress.  We certainly owe a debt of gratitude for the many women—and men—who came before us and ensured that today’s women would have greater opportunities by changing the course of history.  It is an honour to serve such inspiring people! 


In recognition of International Women’s Day, we want to say a special thank you to all of the extraordinary women who paved the way for this generation of young women to experience greater equality and to continue working toward even greater progress.
