Toledo, October 7, 2024: YWCA is proud to recognize women in Northwest Ohio for their remarkable achievements and we invite you to share in celebration, empowerment, commitment, and fundraising for our 30th Annual Milestones Event! It all starts with a Nomination from you.

Help us continue to empower Women by nominating someone you know! Winners of Milestones: A Tribute to Women Award & the Woman on the Rise Award embody the mission of YWCA of Northwest Ohio through their dedication to strengthening our community by uplifting marginalized groups throughout their careers. They must demonstrate leadership through their professional work or service to the community in one of the 8 following categories: Arts, Business, Education, Government, Sciences, Social Services, Volunteerism, and Woman on the Rise.

The Milestones Awards Luncheon has evolved into YWCA of Northwest Ohio’s largest fundraising event, sponsored by local companies and organizations each year, and is one of the area’s most prestigious award recognition events for women. Mark your calendars for March 27, 2025.

Friends and supporters who believe in YWCA’s dedication to eliminating racism, empowering women, standing up for social justice, helping families, and strengthening communities, come together to invest in the safety, hope, and healing of those served by YWCA’s critical programs. All proceeds raised by this important event directly benefit the programs of YWCA of Northwest Ohio.
