What Women of Today awards are available?
A goal of the Minnesota Women of Today is to recognize members and people throughout our communities for their service efforts that impact the lives of others. For that reason, the Outstanding Awards recognize those who show excellence in leadership abilities, are involved in their local communities, and possess the ability to initiate ideas and innovations for new and existing projects and programs. There are many membership awards offered by the state and national organizations; you can find a listing of awards here. There may also be other awards offered by local chapters and districts, please check with a chapter president or district director for those.
