Transcending Sport: Ainka Jess, She’s 4 Sports

She’s4Sports is a Toronto-based digital and events platform that brings women together to have a larger voice in sports through digital content and engaging events. The network represents a community of almost 3000 and growing, passionate women and men who want to amplify and celebrate the contributions of women in sports.  For the founder Ainka Jess this has truly been a passion project that formed out of a conversation with friends that revealed they did not feel comfortable talking about sport whether at home or at work. Ainka also heard comments about the lack of diversity in sport not just in the media but also beyond the mainstream sports. She took it upon herself to bring about a shift in perspectives by opening up the conversations for women across all sectors of sport and as we will hear the organization is growing in its events and participation.
