The St. George Area Chamber of Commerce (SGACC) announces its 2021 Element Award Honorees, who will be recognized at a dinner ceremony on March 26, 2021. This event will take place during Women’s History Month, a month dedicated to celebrating business, political and community achievements of women.
In its first year, the Element Awards honors women in Washington County who are changing the world where they stand. They are the movers and shakers, humanitarians, entrepreneurs and influencers. These women are in their element, doing what they do best, and breaking down barriers. They have exhibited significant leadership and have demonstrated courage in the face of adversity.
“We are pleased to introduce this new recognition as part of the Chamber’s growing effort to recognize and elevate the tremendous work of outstanding women in our community,” said Don Willie, SGACC President and CEO. “These women are exemplary leaders in our community. They are women who have challenged the status quo. They are making the world better for future generations.”
