Dolce Magazine's Empowering Women’s Luncheon at Adamo Winery Celebrates Success

MONO, ONTARIO, CANADA, August 1, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Dolce Magazine hosted an influential luncheon at Adamo Winery in Mono County, Ontario, dedicated to celebrating women’s empowerment and fostering a supportive network among women in various sectors. The event, in support of Women Building Futures (WBF), highlighted the shared mission of supporting women through networking, inspiration, and practical assistance. The luncheon also served as a platform to raise funds and awareness, with Dolce Magazine's commitment of $45,000 to support WBF.

Organized by Dolce Magazine’s co-founders Michelle Zerillo-Sosa and Fernando Zerillo, along with Director of Marketing Angela Palmieri-Zerillo, the luncheon brought together leaders from real estate, fashion, and motivational speaking. It provided a platform for attendees to connect, share experiences, and support each other’s successes. The event underscored the importance of solidarity and empowerment, with a particular focus on the partnership with WBF, an organization dedicated to fostering economic security for women facing barriers to entry in a workforce where they are traditionally under-represented.

Richard Dolan, a globally recognized thought leader, opened the event with an inspiring keynote, setting the tone for a day of empowerment and collaboration. This was followed by remarks from Michelle Zerillo-Sosa and Rachel Veilleux, manager of External Relations & Growth (ON) for Women Building Futures. “We are grateful to Dolce Media Group for helping address financial barriers women face on their path to life-changing careers in the skilled trades,” said Carol Moen, president and CEO of Women Building Futures. “This Dolce Media Group investment in Women Building Futures’ scholarship fund will help lift the economic burden for women in Ontario, who will take our trades-readiness programs, allowing them to focus on their learning journey and their futures.”

The event also featured a panel discussion with esteemed speakers, including Mayor of Orangeville Lisa Post, Mindset Coach Hina Khan, and Elena Di Giovanni, the visionary founder and creator of She’s Vanity, a brand committed to clean, hand-crafted, cruelty-free, and organic skincare products. These speakers shared their perspectives on empowerment and personal growth, engaging in thoughtful conversations about overcoming life's challenges, committing to personal development, and inspiring others by leading by example.

Reflecting on the event’s impact, Michelle Zerillo-Sosa remarked, “As Editor-in-Chief of Dolce, I am deeply honoured and fulfilled to spearhead initiatives that celebrate and empower women. This event not only spotlights the exceptional achievements of women but also stands as a testament to our collective strength and resilience, empowering us to continue pushing boundaries and supporting one another in all our endeavours.”
