Canadian Arab Women's Association
The Canadian Arab Women Association (CAWA) is a non-profit organization established with the purpose of connecting, supporting and empowering Canadian Arab women in the Waterloo Region and Guelph in Ontario, Canada. We represent a group of women who self-identify as Arabs and come from diverse backgrounds and experiences, regardless of their religious beliefs, socio-economic status, and educational levels. CAWA is dedicated to becoming a bridge that connects Arab women and supports them with different resources and programs, so that they can be active members of the Waterloo Region community and in the larger Canadian society. For that, CAWA provides various programs in the fields of health, education, and social support, such as:
Mother and child support
Language courses, computer and financial literacy and others
Social activities and gatherings
Sport and dance classes
Deep understanding and identity support through featuring success stories
