Please join us, virtually, on Thursday, October 29th from 11:30AM – 1:30PM. At this event, we will recognize and honor some of Boston’s brightest, boldest, bravest and most influential women. This virtual format will be a little different from the our usual event, but we assure you it will be a great experience you won’t want to miss. All sponsorship proceeds from this event will support YW Boston’s mission of eliminating racism and empowering women. Join us as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of this beloved event.
