Each year, YWCA Lethbridge & District presents Women of Distinction Awards to women from Southern Alberta who have distinguished themselves through their achievements as individuals, groups, members of their community and role models for other women – women who exemplify our mission and vision.
YWCA Women of Distinction are leaders, mentors, facilitators, communicators, supporters, and listeners. Their unique contributions enrich both our lives and our community. As a women’s organization, we are committed to increasing public recognition of the significant contributions that women from all walks of life make in and around Lethbridge.
YWCA Lethbridge & District is seeking nominations of women that you believe have made a difference in our community to receive one of our 2023 Women of Distinction Awards.
