Message from the Board Chair

Dear friends and supporters of the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame,

As the holiday season approaches, I want to take a moment to share my gratitude for your support of the CWHF and our mission to promote and celebrate great women from Colorado.

Your generous contributions and support have bolstered our commitment to “Honoring the Past and Inspiring the Future”. This year we celebrated with our Class of 2022 Induction Gala and two new Heartland Emmy Award wins this fall for our Great Women of Colorado Film Series. As 2023 draws to a close, I hope you’ll join us for our upcoming Holiday Tea Event/Colorado Gives Fundraiser RSVP HERE on Monday, December 4. I’d love to see you there! If you’re unable to join us in person, and want to donate to our Colorado Gives Campaign, you can do so HERE until December 5, 2023.

We are looking forward to continuing this mission into the new year, and are actively accepting nominations for the Class of 2024. I urge you to consider nominating women who are inspiring future generations through their accomplishments and impact.

On behalf of the entire board, I wish you and your family a happy and healthy holiday season. Again, I thank you for your support of the CWHF, and I look forward to seeing you again soon.

With warm regards,

Barbara Beckner, CWHF Board Chair
