On Sunday March 8th we celebrate International Women’s Day – a day when the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women are celebrated. This year’s theme is “Give to Gain”.

PLASP children and educators strike the “Give to Gain” pose.

The International Women’s Day 2026 “Give to Gain” campaign encourages a mindset of generosity and collaboration. The theme of “Give to Gain” is meant to encourage generosity and collaboration while putting an emphasis on the power of support and reciprocity. When we donate time, education, knowledge, training, mentoring and more, we contribute to women’s advancement.

Wayne Edwards, CEO of PLASP Child Care Services shares the below video message in celebration of PLASP Child Care Services:
