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.

Every year for the past thirteen years, the Hope Awards has brought new surprises, new auction items, new guests, and more inspiring stories. This year’s Hope Awards Dinner will be held Wednesday, May 14 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center, and we can’t wait to share more with you about the event!

In the meantime, look back with us at last year’s Hope Awards, and stay tuned for more news to come next week!
