HOWARD COUNTY, MD — Residents have until Thursday, Nov. 21, to nominate outstanding women for inclusion in the 2020 Women's Hall of Fame. Howard County's Commission for Women is seeking females who have made significant contributions to the lives of others in the county, state or nation with their leadership, professional or community service.
“Howard County is home to many remarkable community leaders who help contribute to a better quality of life for others. Each year, the Howard County Commission for Women honors the women in our community who have made a significant impact,” said Howard County Executive Calvin Ball in a statement. “I encourage all county residents to nominate a leading woman in their lives who deserves recognition for their positive influence in our community.”
To be eligible for the Howard County’s WHOF, nominees may be either living or deceased and must have lived in Howard County for at least 10 years. Up to five women will be selected for induction at the Commission’s annual Women’s Hall of Fame in March 2020, which is held during National Women’s History Month.
