2018 Women of Distinction and Young Woman of Tomorrow Awards

For 34 years, the Waukesha community has been honoring outstanding women - those who excel professionally, academically and in the public arena. Since 2005, the Women and Girls Fund of Waukesha County has had the distinct pleasure of continuing this tradition by sponsoring the Women of Distinction Luncheon. As a friend and supporter of the Women and Girls Fund, we ask you to consider nominating an exceptional woman, or young woman, for these honors. A $1,000 grant will be awarded in the name of each honoree to a nonprofit organization of their choice that supports programs and projects that benefit women and girls in Waukesha County.
