Women’s eNews 21 Leaders for the 21st Century

Nominate a Women’s eNews 21 Leaders for the 21st Century. Check off October 10 for final submissions in our annual open nomination call for 21 Leaders for the 21st Century!

We want to extend this invitation to you to nominate someone you know personally or professionally who has made a difference in the lives of women. If you know of a person who deserves worldwide recognition for the work she or he has done on behalf of women, nominate her or him today!

Women’s eNews would like nominations of persons of all ages, heritages, countries and professions who have made a positive impact on the lives of women. These leaders will be honored at the annual Women’s eNews 21 Leaders for the 21st Century Gala to be held on May 21, 2008.

Former 21 Leaders have embodied the breadth and depth of leadership on behalf of women worldwide - from Baghdad to Pakistan, Rwanda to Afghanistan, from New York to San Francisco, from Wall Street trading floors to the union halls, from the world of philanthropy to the inner sanctums of religion, from global business initiatives to invitation-only fairs of venture capitalists, from research and advocacy for women and girls to ground breaking support for women of color.

All of our past newsworthy Leaders are listed on the following page. You can read more about each of them at: http://www.womensenews.org/21leaders2007.cfm

Our editorial staff and board of directors will review each nomination and announce the honorees on New Year’s Eve. Their biographies and photographs will be posted on http://www.womensenews.org/ and will remain on our site throughout all of 2008.

Your nomination should include:

• The nominee’s name, organization, title, e-mail address, phone number, fax number and postal address (cell too, if you have it.) • Your name, relationship to the nominee, your e-mail address, phone number, fax number and postal address (also cell, if you have one.) • A summary--of 200 words or less--of how this Leader has made a lasting impact on behalf of women.

Please send your nominations to [email protected] by midnight on October 10, 2007. We look forward to reading the inspiring stories of the women who have touched your lives.
