Hall of
Fame
PURPOSE Recognition
programs are a fundamental part of the Women of Today organization. The Nebraska Women of Today have developed a
program to honor women who have displayed a record of outstanding service and
involvement within our organization.
With this program you have the opportunity to recognize outstanding
members, and at the same time it will allow the Nebraska Women of Today to keep
permanent records of these women as part of our heritage. Through this program the local and state
organizations bestow their candidates the title of Hall of Fame member, the
highest of Nebraska Women of Today honors.
This award recognizes the recipient as a member for life in the Nebraska
Women of Today Hall of Fame.
CRITERIA In
order for a Women of Today member to be considered for this honor, several
guidelines have been established as far as a candidate's qualifications:
(1) must have been a four year member
in good standing;
(2) must have served one year on her local
board or must have served one year on
her state board; and
(3) must have displayed a record of
outstanding service and involvement. Service to the Nebraska Women of Today and
the parent organization are to be included.
An official application must be submitted to explain the extent of the
nominee's involvement in the Women of Today as well as her community
