celebrating 30 years
Since 1986, we have celebrated women from all walks oflife who have remarkable careers and have given backto our community. In the early years, the stage was filledwith women who were the first of their kind—the firstfemale engineer, scientist or law partner. Sharing thesewomen’s struggles and paths to success opened doorsfor women seeking the same opportunities. It remindedthe community that women are capable and prepared tosucceed in a wide variety of roles.
Here we are 30 years later and we see that women haveflooded the universities and workforce. It is rare to meeta woman these days who is the first woman in her field.YWCA Columbus is proud to continue this event, becausewe still have work to do. It is not enough that womenhave opportunities in every career field; they now needleadership opportunities equivalent to what is availablefor men. Watching brilliant women and listening to theiroutstanding accomplishments is a continuous reminderthat women are ready for more leadership opportunities.
The Women of Achievement event is inspirational andeducational, but also that strong hammer that continues tochip away at glass ceilings, so that the next generation ofwomen can rise beyond our imaginations.

The Academy of Women of Achievement demonstrate over and over again their passion for the work of YWCA Columbus. They volunteer at the Family Center, mentor young leaders in our programs, speak at our Leadership Luncheon series, participate in our Woman to Woman luncheons and return every year to celebrate the next class of Women of Achievement honorees. When we announced our Campaign for YWCA Columbus, 100% of the classes made a financial commitment to the campaign. The Academy’s passion and enthusiasm for the YWCA guarantees an impactful legacy for decades to come.
