In the Rio Grande Valley, a tremendous number of women have made and continue to make a difference in our community through their generosity and dedication. The participants are native and non-native to the RGV and include educators, business owners, community activists, and artists. Their contributions through their work, community service, and philanthropy positively impact literacy and education, the arts, social causes, and the environment in the Valley.
