Women’s Day 2026

A Day of Influential Women — Community, Culture & Collective Power

International Women’s Day 2026 is a full-day community-centered celebration honoring influential women from all backgrounds—women with and without children—across cultures, professions, and lived experiences. This day centers community, wellness, leadership, and collective power while welcoming families, allies, and supporters. This event is designed to uplift women and families through access, education, wellness, resources, and sisterhood, with a special focus on women from low-income backgrounds and communities that have historically been underserved.

This day will bring together women leaders, activists, healthcare providers, educators, and community organizations to create a powerful space for unity, healing, empowerment, and connection.

International Women’s Day at Women’s International Grail, Inc. is a space of belonging, dignity, and respect. All women are welcome—regardless of income, race, age, ability, background, family structure, or life path. This is a judgment-free, affirming environment where women can access resources, share stories, build community, and be celebrated exactly as they are.
