Women of Achievement
The Women of Achievement Awards celebrate the remarkable achievements of women who have made significant contributions to social justice and systems change. This year, the Genevieve U. Gilmore Award, the Dorothy I. Height Award, and the Mission Vision Award will be presented to outstanding individuals who embody the mission of eliminating racism and empowering women in their everyday lives.
In honor of the YWCA’s 140th anniversary, we will recognize past and present awardees who have devoted themselves to these vital causes since 1985. The Women of Achievement event will begin with a reception at 4:30 PM, followed by the awards ceremony at 5:15 PM in the Arcadia Ballroom.
This year, we will also have an additional event immediately following the Women of Achievement Awards. The Celebration Soirée will take place in the West Michigan Room at the Radisson until 9:30 PM, featuring hors d’oeuvres, a cash bar, and live music.
