The Commission will honor 100 Unsung Heroines

12:45PM / Wednesday, January 14, 2009

BOSTON, Mass. – The Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women (MCSW) is seeking nominations for its 6th Annual Unsung Heroines of Massachusetts celebration. The Commission will honor 100 Unsung Heroines from communities across the state at the May 13th event.

“We are looking for women who don’t make the news, they make a difference." says Greer Tan Swiston, MCSW Chair. "Unsung Heroines are women who make our neighborhoods, cities and towns better places to live and to work. They are mentors, volunteers and innovators who do what needs to be done without expectations of recognition or gratitude. These women are the glue that keeps a community together and every community has them. With our Unsung Heroine Event, we want to honor these amazing women and say 'Thank you for all you do!'" 

MCSW is seeking extraordinary women of all ages, all economic, political and ethnic backgrounds. Any individual may nominate one or more Massachusetts’ women to be considered for selection as an Unsung Heroine of 2009. Nomination forms are available for download on the MCSW’s website at www.mass.gov/women. The deadline for nominations is February 27, 2009.

A selection committee will review all nominations and choose the 100 Unsung Heroines of 2009. All 2009 Unsung Heroine honorees will be contacted and invited to attend a ceremony in their honor at the Massachusetts State House on May 13th. For more information please contact the MCSW at 617-626-6520 or mcsw@state.ma.us

The Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women is an independent state agency that was legislatively created in 1998 to advance women of the Commonwealth to full equality in all areas of life and to promote their rights and opportunities. The Commission consists of 19 commissioners appointed by the Governor, the Senate President, the House Speaker and the Caucus of Women Legislators.
