    22nd Annual Unsung Heroines Award Luncheon The National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter conceived the Unsung Heroine Awards Gala in 1997 as an opportunity to recognize African-American women. The awards are presented to women in our community who work tirelessly to empower their community in the vital areas of education, health, public policy, civic responsibility, business and entertainment. These women toil relentlessly without recognition. The women honored are nominated by their peers and voted on by an independent panel. Annually, the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter recognizes women who, through their desire to make a difference, perform selfless acts of kindness. We have honored some incredible women who have provided clothing for the homeless, operated programs to help educate children, mentored special needs children, triumphed as political activists to improve conditions in their neighborhoods and performed myriad of other thankless tasks to serve the communities in which they live. The women who are selected are honored at our Annual Unsung Heroines Awards Ceremony. Unsung Heroines is a major fundraiser for the Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter. Proceeds from the event will benefit the organization’s Economic Empowerment Program that provides transitional support services to women and children who need a helping hand as they move from dependency to self-sufficiency. ABOUT EMPOWERING WOMEN: SISTERS HELPING SISTERS The National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter (NCBW-MAC) is committed to empowering women in ways that lead to better health and economic opportunities. Through our work we know that women who are healthy and financially independent tend to be less vulnerable to abuse and exploitation in general.
