For 32 years, RWN has hosted the “W” Award dinner to spotlight outstanding women from the Greater Rochester Community. The event is filled with joy, laughter, and sometimes even tears as we revel in the uplifting stories of the honorees and announce the "W" Award Recipient. Finalists’ family, friends, and nominators are encouraged to attend this spectacular evening and share in the well-deserved recognition of these phenomenal women.  The "W" Award is RWN’s highest honor and a cornerstone of the organization’s mission to bolster and celebrate women.

2019 Honorees:

Kim Guerrieri, VP of the Board, GiGi’s Playhouse of Rochester

Randi Lattimore, Midtown Mind BodyDirector, Midtown Athletic Club

Sujatha Ramanujan, PhD, Managing Director, Luminate

Denise Reed Lamoreaux, Global Chief Diversity Officer, Atos

Rene Spallina, Founder of Fairy Godmothers of Greater Rochester

Established in 1986, the prestigious “W” Award is presented annually to a Rochester community leader who:

• works tirelessly and often with little recognition on behalf of women;
• goes above and beyond the everyday expectations of her paid or volunteer position to support the personal and professional growth of women;
• leads by example and empowers women to learn, grow, and succeed;
• inspires women through her courage, initiative, and creative energy;
• exemplifies a high standard of integrity and respect for others.

Join Rochester Women's Network on Thursday, October 24, 2019 when we come together to honor our finalists and name the "W" Award Recipient for 2019! 

There will be a raffle and cash bar. 

Thank you to our event sponsors!
