February 11 - Women Building Connection with Jani Burgess

Women Building Connection is a FREE event series where five (5) women local to Nipawin, from varying cultural backgrounds that are representative of our community, each speak to her culture in relation to the Power of Five (5): Agency, Authenticity, Connection, Wholeness, Healthy Mind.

Thank you to our sponsors Sask Culture and Sask Lotteries we can combine our last two events into one evening of connection and learning! Our final Women Building Connection will take place November 11 from 3:00 to 6:00 PM.

All-Women are invited to listen, ask questions, and take notes that highlight cultural similarities - helping participants to build deeper cultural and community connections.

The event series will take place at The Dam Smokehouse at Nipawin. The space is welcoming and central to the community. This venue is also representative that a women can not RiSEUP on her own. Rather, men and women must RiSEUP together. The establishment is owned and operated by husband and wife, Faron and Andrea, who live upstairs with their daughter.

Faron believes that "empowerment of women is vital to a healthy society, home foundation, and business. Building today to become leaders of tomorrow is both important and necessary in shaping a balanced world we all seek. To be able to be part of that process in a small way is an honour”.

The event is FREE and includes a healthy meal. Thank you to our sponsors SaskCultures, SaskLotteries, and The Dam Smokehouse.

RiSEUP creates a safe space for women to connect, learn, and rise up together. Helping each other to find common ground. Build connection and share tools that help all-women to RiSEUP to life challenges.

The RiSEUP events are FREE, brought to you by the RiSEUP Community Advisory Foundation. Our aim is to ensure access to "healthy food, equitable opportunities, a sense of belonging, and topics that are proven to help women thrive" no matter her challenge, status, or position.

​Local sponsorship, charitable grants, and Business Consulting On Call are the funding backbone to the Foundation. All Business Consulting fees go directly to the charity and are eligible for a charitable tax receipt.
