On behalf of DOS and the Organising Project Team, thanks once again, for everyone’s contributions. You all played a role that helped to educate and empower and bring about awareness.  Also, that created a memorable environment that will be remembered and that will continue to inspire for years to come. Collectively you all made a meaningful impact on the lives of women and girls across our community which is what we were stiving for. Please continue to #AccelerateAction; together, we can build a Cayman Islands where women and men, girls and boys, all have equal opportunities; not just in sports, but in every aspect of life. This vision requires commitment, unity, and the collective will of our entire community. When women thrive, our families, communities, and society as a whole reap the benefits. So please collectively let us speak up for gender equality and inclusion, it will lend for a brighter, more equitable future for all.

Sincerest gratitude,

Merta (Meita) Day

Honouring Women Month Event Organiser Lead
