The YWCA Darien/Norwalk is seeking nominations for women who epitomize leadership in the areas of racial equity, social justice and have worked to strengthen the local community during the coronavirus pandemic for their 12th annual Women of Distinction Awards.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the YWCA, a nonprofit organization, was unable to hold last year’s Women of Distinction Award Ceremony to formally honor the six women selected.
During the 2021 event, the YWCA will honor those six women and one young woman of distinction. The event will be held in early June, and will be an in-person event with a livestream.
