Nominate a 2025 Woman of Achievement
Nominations for Women of Achievement 2025 are now available!
Women of Achievement honors those who embody our commitment to empower women: individuals who impact their professions, uplift their communities, fight bias, and inspire others. For nearly four decades, YWCA Columbus has been shining a bright light on the courage and compassion of these leaders.
We welcome nominations of cisgender women, transgender women, and non-binary individuals who align with the mission of YWCA Columbus, as well as Women of Achievement’s celebration of influential women, and who would be comfortable accepting a women-centered award.
Once nominations are submitted, we respectfully ask that you do not contact YWCA Columbus Board of Directors or staff members regarding the status of your nomination.
YWCA Columbus staff and Board members are not permitted to nominate potential Women of Achievement or write letters of support for nominations.
External communication and updates regarding the selection of Women of Achievement will be shared on our website.
