International Women's Day (IWD) is a globally recognized event that celebrates the remarkable social, economic, cultural, and political strides made by women. It is a powerful driver for promoting gender equality, prompting collective action to accelerate
change. Worldwide, there is a palpable sense of engagement as diverse communities, organizations, and individuals come together to honor women's achievements and champion gender parity.
International Women's Day has a long history, beginning in New York City on March 8, 1857, when female workers in the textile industry took to the streets to protest unfair working conditions and unequal rights for women. It was the first organized strike by working women, during which they called for a shorter workday and decent wages.
International Women's Day and Women's History Month are special times in the year for all of us to look back and understand the unique challenges that women face, such as
the gender pay gap, gender career opportunities, higher chances of harassment, and higher emotional stresses due to motherhood. We recognize and acknowledge the strengths and unique skills that women bring to make the world a better place.
Recognizing the obstacles faced by women, Corinthian Wealth Management, a team predominantly comprising women, embraces Women's History Month by empowering women to attain financial independence and autonomy. Our mission extends beyond mere sustenance; it's about equipping women with the knowledge, tools, and opportunities to make informed financial decisions and pursue their life goals confidently.
Cheers to the phenomenal women who make the world better every day. Happy International Women's Day! Your impact is immeasurable, and your strength is awe-inspiring.
