Save the date for the second annual Women of Distinction luncheon honoring women from the Golden Triangle area and benefitting Girl Scouts Heart of the South.
Women of Distinction provides an opportunity to recognize and link together a group of purpose-driven women in business, government and philanthropy. Like Girl Scouts, the women are dedicated to service and leadership throughout Clay, Lowndes and Oktibbeha Counties.
Businesses, individuals and organizations are invited to nominate a special Woman of Distinction to be honored at this event. Women can be nominated for their leadership, community contributions and professional accomplishments. Nominees are positive role models whose accomplishments inspire girls to achieve their own goals and dreams. Nominated women, who so often go unrecognized, will be honored and thanked at the Women of Distinction luncheon on Friday, March 31 at 11:30 a.m. at First Baptist Church Outreach Center in Starkville.
How to nominate
Nominations must be submitted by March 3. A limit of 10 Nominations will be accepted, on a first-come, first-served basis. The honorees will be selected and notified in advance. Nomination forms are available on the Girl Scouts Heart of the South website at girlscoutshs.org/en/support/special-events/women-of-distinction.html or by calling Caroline Skelton at 662-0350-6037.
