This year is no exception, as the Center will once again honor four incredibly dedicated, hard working, innovative and generous women who have left indelible marks in the South Bay.
We honor women who have made a significant contribution to the South Bay through their work in the community in areas such as education, business, healthcare, innovation, leadership, services to at-risk youth, special needs children and young adults, volunteerism and other fields.
