100 years ago the 19th Amendment was officially certified by Congress and adopted into the US Constitution. It is only fitting that 100 years later, YWCA Lancaster announces the four honorees for YWCA Lancaster’s Women of Achievement Awards, taking place as a live streamed virtual event on November 6, 2020. These deserving women have exemplified “women on a mission” — in their chosen fields and in our community.

Why We Recognize Women
It is time that we come together and celebrate the accomplishments and positive impact the women of Lancaster are making in our community. Too often, those who shine among us go unrecognized. With your help, YWCA Lancaster intends to pay tribute to four deserving women of Lancaster County at the Women of Achievement Luncheon. These extraordinary women selflessly give of their time and energy to make our community a better place. This event recognizes and honors women who have demonstrated qualities of leadership and excellence in their personal and professional endeavors while supporting, embodying, and complementing YWCA Lancaster’s mission of eliminating racism and empowering women.
