Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ

Since 2000, the Women Who Make a Difference program has honored women who are impacting our Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder community. Each fall, we accept nominations from the campus community for women to honor and awards are presented at a celebration of the nominees with their nominators.  

Each October, The Center (for Cultural Connections & Community) invites Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder students, staff, and faculty to nominate marvelous women in our community including advocates, colleagues, friends, grandmothers, mothers, storytellers or any woman who has impacted your life in a positive way. While nominators must be affiliated with Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder, nominees can be members of the wider community. The most fun thing: because the goal of this award is to recognize more women for all their contributions to our campus, the program honors all women who are nominated!*. 

The recognition ceremony and reception will be held on the evening of Wednesday, December 3rd. The Center staff will share the time and location privately with honorees and nominators after the call for nominations period closes. 

*One woman may be nominated by multiple people or teams of people, AND we limit nominations to one per Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØcommunity member. Women who were honored in 2023 or 2024 are not eligible to be recognized in 2025, and Center staff will contact you if this is the case.
