Whether we are moms, daughters or friends; activists, scientists, politicians or librarians, each day that we make the choice to help someone in need, be a caregiver, fight for someone’s rights or work to break yet one more glass ceiling, we are making history.
Women’s History Month serves as a gleaming opportunity to shine a light on women who have had a significant impact on the lives of others. Kamala. Greta. Sojourner. Ruth. Thankfully, there are too many names to list. Join us as we honor women in the arts, politics and all of history. Below is a sampling of some of the events we have planned.
