Alterna Savings believes in helping communities shine by empowering them to live, prosper, learn, innovate, care, play, and connect. The Ottawa Women’s Legacy Fund, by Alterna Savings, has an aim of doing just that by providing pathways for success. This fund supports initiatives and organizations that improve the increased inclusion of women and women-identified community members by supporting programs that offer opportunities, remove barriers, provide a sense of belonging, and address gender parity. This fund works to support initiatives that create greater equity for women and address their social determinants of their financial resilience. Grants made from this fund ensure that this important vision is carried out and much-needed support in the community continues.
