NOMINATE A LIBERATION LEADER
HONORING LOCAL
CHANGEMAKERS
In September 2024, BWF will publicly honor 40 Liberation Leaders who have contributed outstanding work toward racial, gender, economic, and social justice in Greater Boston. We are currently accepting public nominations for individuals who are making an impact in your community.
Read on to learn more and nominate a leader today!
We remain committed to doing philanthropy differently — in partnership with communities — and we need your help.
Who are the innovative changemakers who have touched your life and the lives of your community? Who are the women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals who have fought for their communities and have yet to receive their flowers? Often, such pivotal work by leaders from our communities goes unsung. Let’s change that together.
Liberation Leaders are people who are leading and engaging in movements that resist oppressive systems and are striving to create new systems.
We invite you to nominate Liberation Leaders with outstanding work and impact in Greater Boston over the last 40 years.
Please keep the following crieteria in mind.
Boston Women’s Fund’s 40 Liberation Leaders are:
-
Women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals who are a part of the communities BWF serves (people of color, elderly, youth, refugees, immigrants, LGBTQIA+, low income, and disabled).
-
Working toward racial, gender, economic, and/or social liberation.
-
Working within or beyond the nonprofit sector.
