Where women’s achievements are often overshadowed, we bring light to the impact women in Cumberland County have on our community, schools, and government.

We are proud to honor the diverse achievements of women in Cumberland County who exemplify peace, justice, and dignity for all through their lives as business leaders, educators, medical professionals, public servants, artists, and community volunteers. Their impact has reached across Cumberland County and affected everyone in their circle.

Why Persimmon?

Persimmons are a fruit that symbolize good fortune in business, longevity in life, and kindness in action. Persimmon is also the branded color of the YWCA USA!
