The 15th annual Neighborhood Dinner brings together our Board, Alumnae, Grantees, Friends, Staff and newcomers for a fall celebration of women leaders who are developing solutions to the challenges in their community.
The Neighborhood Leadership Award promotes the power of women acting in and for their communities. The awards honor women who have demonstrated outstanding leadership in their community and committed involvement in neighborhood-based work on behalf of women and girls over a substantial period of time.
