“We are here to hear”
The mission of Woman of Achievement is to recognize & develop women leaders in their communities. We host two signature events for women: The International Woman of Achievement Leadership Weekend inviting women from cultures worldwide to present women’s issues, perform and/or speak while meeting and networking with other outstanding women. The second event, our U.S. National event is the Ms. & Mrs. U.S. Woman of Achievement Pageant which is a three-day leadership pageant weekend where women can present their platform work, interview and compete for the titles of Mrs. U.S. WOA and Ms. U.S. WOA. All events culminate in various awards including cash grants to women with community service, excellence in public speaking, or excellence in academic achievement & the arts.
