Twenty-two women will be honored in May when YWCA Northeastern Massachusetts presents its 38th Annual Tribute to Women.
Since 1983, the YWCA’s Tribute to Women has recognized more than 1,200 Merrimack Valley and North Shore women leaders from business and community organizations. Organizers say, “A hallmark of Tribute is that women honored come from all walks of life; their contributions are varied, and all are remarkable in their own unique way.”
The Tribute to Women takes place virtually May 13, at 6:30 p.m. This year, Tribute to Women’s Diamond sponsor is again Pfizer. Northshore Magazine and WHAV are media partners. Sponsorships for this major fundraiser are also available by contacting Jeanne Osborn at [email protected] or 978-687-0331 ext. 1045 or visiting ywcanema.org.
