Welcome to the REAL Women Video

Following a long and often frustrating journey, we are finally able to introduce the new REAL Women Video. To everyone who looked through video tapes, suggested information to be included, spoke so passionately about our goals and beliefs, sent in donations … thank you all. This video represents the tireless efforts of each and every member of REAL Women of Canada and is an exciting tribute to this organization and what it stands for. We've composed a little poem to describe our journey to create this video.

Together we have done our best, we've worked for many years,
We've shared the battles, arm in arm, the laughter and the tears.
At times it seemed so very hard, but we would not give in
And day by day, we carried on, determined we would win.

"Who are these women," we would hear, "who fight for family life?"
"Their voice is strong, they carry on, to face the daily strife."
But exactly what REAL Women is, they didn't have a clue
We needed something special that would tell them what we do.

An idea grew and then took shape, we knew what it would be
REAL Women made a video so everyone could see.
It wasn't always easy, to cover every side
But now that it's completed, we're filled with so much pride.

REAL Women's fight has been worthwhile, we've made so many friends
We'll stand together, hand in hand, and fight until the end.
Our story is a good one, we've travelled far and wide
And every step we've taken with our members by our side.

This tape describes our policies, and all that we hold dear
Supporters speak on our behalf, and things are made quite clear
It shows how busy we've become, it shows what we can do
It took some time to make it work, but now it's up to you!

We hope you will purchase a copy of the REAL Women Video at the low cost of only $10.00. So many of you have never had an opportunity to see what really goes on behind the scenes or to see our members in action. Show it at your church or service group on behalf of REAL Women. It is certain to inspire everyone who sees it. Please request your copy from:
