Women of Distinction™
A celebration of women who are role models, trailblazers, and outstanding achievers.
Women of Distinction™ celebrates the contribution of women who've worked to improve the quality of life in Guelph, and beyond. It is a nationally-recognized prestigious program, with a long history of shining a light on deserving women. As our journey of justice, access, inclusion, diversity and equity progresses we recognize all femme-identifying individuals through this special event.
The format of Women of Distinction™ is under review and discussion. If you would like to provide feedback for consideration, please contact our Planning Team via email.
