YWCA taking nominations for annual TWIN awards

The YWCA of Asheville is now accepting nominations for the 16th annual YWCA Tribute to Women of Influence (TWIN) Awards event which will be held on Thursday, September 20 at Pack Place and the Diana Wortham Theatre. The YWCA TWIN award recognizes women who are role models in their professions and the community. Each nominee must fit into one of these three categories: equality, empowerment, and transformation. The deadline to submit nominations is June 1. The YWCA TWIN nomination form is available on the YWCA website, www.ywcaofasheville.org, or can be requested by calling 254-7206 x 206. Proceeds from the TWIN event go to support YWCA programs that bridge gaps in education, earning power, health and child care.
