Written By Allison Pillar

FARGO, ND (January 6, 2025) — Nominations are now open for YWCA’s 52nd annual Women of the Year event.

Since 1973, YWCA has been highlighting exceptional area women at this widely-celebrated event attended by 800+ people. Proceeds from the evening support the mission and programs of YWCA Cass Clay.

Women of the Year recipients will be announced during the event to be held Monday, April 28, 2025, at the Delta Hotel by Marriott.                                                     

Nominations are sought for women in Cass and Clay counties with significant achievements in ten categories:

  • Advocating for Equality

  • Arts, Culture, & Community

  • Business Leadership

  • Education

  • Health, Wellness, & Spirituality

  • Lifetime Achievement

  • Science, Technology, & Innovation

  • Volunteer Service

  • Young Woman of Today & Tomorrow

  • Youth Advocacy

To ensure an event of reasonable length and to best honor and respect the time and efforts of nominees and their nominators, nominations for YWCA Women of the Year will be limited to a maximum of 3-5 nominees per category, not to exceed 40 nominees total. Once the category limit has been reached, nominations in that category will no longer be accepted.

The final deadline, for any categories that do not reach maximum capacity, is Friday, February 21, 2025 at noon.
