💙✨ In recognition of Volunteer Week, we are grateful to Lorrie King, Committee Chair of the YWCA Toronto Distinction Awards and Partner at Deloitte, for her leadership and ongoing support as part of our community of volunteers and champions.
As Chair of the Distinction Awards Fundraising Committee, Lorrie helps guide an event that brings together community leaders and partners to celebrate impact and advance gender equity.
“This event is more than a celebration—it’s a chance to honour leaders driving change. Sponsors help transform this celebration into action, empowering women, gender diverse people, and their families as they find safety, housing, employment, skills, confidence and hope, shaping a stronger future for all.”
— Lorrie King, Partner, Deloitte and YWCA Toronto Distinction Awards Sponsor

Thank you for being an essential part of our community 🎊
📣💰Today is Equal Pay Day!
Equal Pay Day symbolizes how much longer into 2026 a woman must work to earn what a man earned in 2025. In Ontario, women must work an average of 15.5 months – an additional 3.5 months into the next year – to match what men earned the previous year. This gap is even wider for Indigenous and racialized women, LGBTQ women, and women with disabilities.
2026 marks the 50th anniversary of the Equal Pay Coalition - Ontario, a powerful collective that has advanced economic equality for decades. We are proud to be founding and active members of the Coalition 💙
Today, alongside the Coalition and community partners, we gathered in downtown Toronto to rally for adequate funding for vital public services – with a particular focus on child care – that meet community needs and help close the gender pay gap.
✍️Join the Equal Pay Coalition in sending a letter to Premier Ford and the Provincial government demanding that they deliver on their commitment to build a child care system that gives child care workers decent pay and benefits and to close the gender pay gap: https://equalpaycoalition.org/mobilize-your-mpps/
