Dear friends and supporters,
We are reaching out to you today with a special request to support women in cybersecurity. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, it is crucial that we foster diversity and equal representation in this field.
Unfortunately, women are significantly underrepresented in cybersecurity, which not only hampers progress but also perpetuates the gender gap in technology. By donating to our cause, you can help provide educational opportunities, mentorship programs, and networking resources specifically tailored for women pursuing careers in cybersecurity.
Your contribution will empower and inspire the next generation of female cybersecurity professionals, ensuring a brighter and more inclusive future for this critical industry. Together, let us create a level playing field and drive meaningful change.
Please consider making a donation today and join us in breaking down barriers for women in cybersecurity.
Thank you for your generosity and support.
Sincerely,
Lisa Kearney

Women need to work twice as hard to receive half the credit for the same work as men. They are paid less, receive less career advancement, and training opportunities than their male counterparts.
In Canada, 50% of women will drop out of Information Technology within the first four years of their career.
Women make up only 11% of the global workforce. Organizations struggle to find skilled resources to build the capacity of the next generation of cybersecurity warriors to defend against increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks and cybercrime.
