USA TODAY's Women of the Year program has stored significant attention in recent years, recognizing women who have made a profound impact in their communities and beyond. The annual program is a continuation of Women of the Century, a 2020 project commemorating the 100th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote.
The program aims to inspire women, girls, and their supporters to work together towards a better world. The USA TODAY Women of the Year program is now seeking nominations for Florida's representative for the 2025 program. The Women of the Year honorees are individuals who are leading change, modeling success, and uplifting others in their communities.
The selected individuals have demonstrated exceptional dedication and perseverance in their work, often overcoming significant obstacles to make a positive impact. In 2024, Florida's honoree was Wendy H. Steele... the founder and CEO of Impact100, a nonprofit organization focused on mobilizing women in philanthropy.
Other notable honorees from across the country included Eva Longoria, a director and actress who pushed for more accurate portrayals of Latinos; Asheli Spivey, who is working to improve the ___s of Black mothers in Nebraska; Eva Lighthiser, a 17-year-old activist from Montana who challenged her state to consider the impact of environmental change on future generations; and Melissa Alexander, Becky Bailey Hansen, Mary Joyce, and Sarah Shoop Neumann... four mothers who came together after the Nashville Covenant School shooting to work towards making schools safer.
These individuals are everyday heroes who use their voices to advocate for others despite the challenges they may face. They serve as role models, inspiring others to take action and make a positive difference in their communities. USA TODAY invites readers to nominate women in their ___s, neighborhoods, "and communities who embody these qualities."
