Our Annual Awards Ceremony Honoring Impactful Women in the Community
Women of Distinction honors special women whose lives, talents, and passions improve the communities in which they live.
Women of Distinction is an annual event carried out by YWCAs across the United States that focuses on “unsung heroes” who exhibit strong leadership skills, advocate for positive social change, or demonstrate a commitment to their community and to the mission of the YWCA. This event is an opportunity to recognize and honor women in a variety of areas ranging from business to education to military, who have contributed significantly and serve as a role model to other women.
The YWCA Minot presents the Women of Distinction Award to women who improve the communities in which they live. This award honors women who have demonstrated excellence, leadership, and integrity in their fields and in the community.
If you know an inspirational woman, she could be a boss, an employee, a volunteer, a friend or family member who has gone beyond the call of duty to help you, your organization, or business, please consider recognizing their work by nominating them for this award.
