Do you know a woman who leads by example? Does her generosity of time and treasure inspire you to do more? Then consider nominating her for the United Way of Summit County's 'Woman Philanthropist of the Year' Award.
The Women’s Leadership Giving Society of United Way of Summit County is seeking nominees for its ‘Woman Philanthropist of the Year’ Award, which will be presented at ‘The Power of the Purse’ luncheon on July 11, 2007.
The award was established to recognize a woman who has demonstrated a passionate desire to help others through her financial support and service to non-profit organizations and institutions, including United Way, within Summit County. Past winners have included Rochelle Stone, Carol Yassine, Laura Culp and Susan Summerville.
Nominations can be made by anyone in the community. Any woman who displays the characteristics consistent with the intent of the award, is a resident of Summit County and demonstrates philanthropic support in a variety of areas of the community, including United Way of Summit County, is eligible for the award. Due to the active, ongoing nature of the award and its intent, candidates nominated posthumously will not be considered. The deadline for nominations is May 25, 2007.
