Honoree nomination deadline nears

All nominations must be received by Feb. 4

The Mendocino Women’s Political Coalition, Ukiah AAUW and the Saturday Afternoon Clubhouse have launched the planning for the 39th Annual Women’s History Gala Celebration at the Saturday Afternoon Clubhouse in Ukiah.

Mark your calendars and save the date: March 20. Three women in Mendocino County will be honored to represent the 2022 theme, “Women Providing Healing, Promoting Hope.”

The National Women’s History Month theme for 2022 honors women who, in both public and private life, provide healing and promote hope for the betterment of all.

Mendocino County 2022 honorees may represent many diverse backgrounds, and each may have made her mark in a different field.

The theme is both a tribute to the ceaseless work of caregivers and frontline workers during this ongoing pandemic and also a recognition of the thousands of ways that women of all cultures have provided both healing and hope throughout history.

While each honoree will be extraordinary, each will also be ordinary in her own way. Most importantly, the 2022 honorees will inspire women and girls to follow.

Send your nomination via email to vjmuchowski@ gmail.com with the following information:

• Name of nominee to include her telephone number(s) and email address.

• Two sentences to explain how your nominee fits the 2022 theme.

• Three paragraphs to describe why your nomination deserves to be a 2022 honoree.

Deadline: All nominations must be received by Feb. 4.

If you submit more than one nominee, please remember to send a separate email for each of your nominations. When you prepare your email submission, make the subject: 2022 Nomination.
