The immense lack of support and resources for girls and non-binary youth during their critical developmental years.
Girls and non-binary youth from ages 10-14 struggle as the confluence of societal and biological trends create a perfect storm for adolescent girls: rapid decline in confidence, poor mental health, and a toxic, sexualized culture.
The Future Fund’s mandate is to empower and build the confidence of girls and non-binary youth. $100,000 over three years will support initiatives and organizations that help alleviate The Girl Gap.
$52,463.88 of $100,000 raised.
$50 from each limited-edition product will be donated to KidSport.
The Girl Gap
By age 14, girls drop out of sport at twice the rate of boys the same age.
Let's Keep Girls in Sport
Girls and women who play sports have higher levels of self-esteem, and an astounding 94% of female leaders have an athletic background.
How We're Helping
The Future Fund donates to KidSport Canada to cover sport registration fees, helping keep girls and non-binary youth in sport.
The Girl Gap
Only 18% of Canadian businesses are majority-owned by women.
The Future is Female
When girls are empowered with financial knowledge, they have the confidence to navigate adulthood with resilience, become leaders in their communities, and pursue entrepreneurship.
How We're Helping
