Women of Distinction Awards
Celebrate the Remarkable Women in Cambridge
You’re invited to an evening of inspiration and empowerment.
We’re shining a light on the everyday amazing things that women, girls, and gender-diverse folks do to create positive change in the world around them.
These trailblazers in our community demonstrate how small acts can create a big impact!
By joining in Cambridge’s most prestigious event recognizing women, you also help to fund programming that uplifts them:
Gender-based violence prevention,
Employment services,
Wrap-around supports,
And advocacy to end gender inequity.
Recognizing trailblazers in our community.
This event is all about acknowledging multifaceted contributions from our community and leaders with distinct perspectives.
Women of Distinction are paving the way for future change in our city. They work to inspire, lead, and create a positive impact. And we can’t help but stand up and take notice.
The 2024 Women of Distinction Awards will once again celebrate nominees’ unique journeys and impacts, rather than boxing their diverse experiences into categories.
A LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP
We’ll award four Women of Distinction awards, in addition to three special award categories:
Young Trailblazer Award (25 and under)
Lifetime Achievement Award (55 plus)
President’s Award
