Our 2026 Theme:
#CelebrateHer
Following the journey of empowerment that began with #iRise in 2022-where we honoured women’s strength, resilience, and determination-and #2023Thrive, where we celebrated their ability to flourish despite life’s challenges, #CelebrateHer is a natural and inspiring progression.
#CelebrateHer is about honouring the strength, spirit, and stories of women everywhere. It’s the laughter that fills the air when women stand together, the tears that come with pride, and the warmth that grows when a community unites in support and love. It’s a tribute to every woman’s story – her courage, compassion, ambition, and contribution to her world. When she laces up her shoes and joins the crowd, she doesn’t walk or run alone – she carries the stories of those who came before her and those who stand beside her.
This movement reinforces SPAR’s commitment to uplifting women through initiatives that promote wellness, inclusion, and shared value. It creates space for joy, recognition, and appreciation – encouraging South Africans to honour the women in their lives and communities.
