Woman of Wisdom and Passion
In 2008, the Executive Board of British Columbia decided to honour a woman in our province who has demonstrated passion and wisdom in her pursuit to improve the lives of others in her community or in underdeveloped regions of the world. She has inspired others through her work. She does not have to be a member of The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International.
