A Look Back at the 2013 Hope Awards Dinner

Every spring, supporters of Calvary Women’s Services join local leaders at the Hope Awards Dinner. As you may already know, the Hope Awards Dinner honors members of the community who offer hope and empowerment to women in need. Previous honorees include Katie Couric, NPR’s Diane Rehm, Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton and PBS’s Gwen Ifill.
