2015 Women of Achievement Celebration, featuring Naomi Tutu

Join the YWCA as we honor our 2015 Women & Business of Achievement: Khurshida Begum, Barbara Clarkson, Kristin Jacobsen, Marsha Tadano Long, Kimberly Perry (Young WOA) and TOGETHER! Race & Gender Justice Activist, Naomi Tutu is the featured speaker at this year’s Celebration.

Tutu is the third child of Archbishop Desmond Tutu. She was born in South Africa and had the opportunity to live in many communities and countries. She was educated in Swaziland, the US, and England, and has divided her adult life between South Africa and the US. Growing up the “daughter of…” has offered Naomi Tutu many opportunities and challenges in her life. Most important of these has been the challenge to follow her own path and role in building a better world. She has taken up the challenge and channeled the opportunities she has been given to raise her voice as a champion for the dignity of all.
