International Women’s Day Celebrated

Every year, the celebration of International Women’s Day puts a spotlight on the positive impacts of women worldwide, highlighting achievements and strides made against inequality. In 2017, the theme is Be Bold for Change, and the movement calls on all people to be aware of what they can do locally, regionally, nationally, and globally to help further the cause of women.  Events on March 8 will celebrate the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, as well as challenge everyone to take action in their own way.

This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize the women – and men – in your life who are changing the world for the better every day.

As is often the case these days, International Women’s Day has its own hashtag – so if you are involved in any events or related causes, make sure to tell the world by posting #BeBoldForChange on your social media accounts.

As you celebrate the strong women in your life and advocate for change, let them know you are thinking of them and standing with them.
