This month Al's Florist is eager to celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8. This is a wonderful time to honor the women in your life who exhibit strong leadership skills and balance for better (the campaign's theme this year) in their daily lives. Who do you know that works hard for gender equality? Teachers, mentors, leaders and supporters are excellent examples of strong female contributions to the International Women's Day movement. Not affiliated with any particular organization or nationality, this global movement is in the business of making strides toward gender equality, not only in the workplace, but in all aspects of life.
