WESTERN MASS.-The Girl Scouts of Central and Western Massachusetts has announced a new award that will honor five professionals in Western Massachusetts.
The ToGetHerThere Awards gives area businesses and organizations the opportunity to honor a “difference maker” from within their ranks who has shown exceptional achievement in their profession, is an inspiration to their co-workers and young women and have made contributions to their communities.
“The nominated person must signify role model behavior in their professional career and represent the Girl Scout’s mission of building girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place,” said Dana Carnegie, community relations manager, Girl Scouts of Central and Western Massachusetts.
The organization will honor the winners at the ToGetHerThere Awards luncheon on Oct. 27 at the Springfield Marriott. The nomination deadline is Sept. 1.
