One Hundred Years, One Hundred Women

In celebration of the 1ooth anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote nationwide, the Columbia County Women's Alliance will acknowledge and celebrate "100 Women Making a Difference in Columbia County." Starting today, November 30, and continuing through December 14, the CCWA is seeking nominations for this recognition.

The CCWA explains: "Nominees should reside in Columbia County, include all generations and areas of expertise, be it a grandmother raising her grandchildren or a woman at the top of her field. These women impact our community through their passion, their foresight, their bravery, and their simple determination to make life better for their families and their neighbors."

The CCWA describes itself in this way: "The CCWA aims to be a countywide, non-partisan, diverse, and collaborative alliance of women and community organizations committed to a just, humane, and equitable society, working to elect women to positions of power, and supporting alliance members in their work for social justice."
