Mark Your Calendars: Woman One

This is advance notice but for those who don't have anything on the calendar for Monday, April 27th, consider going out to the Woman One awards. Jane Pepper of the Horticultural Society, is being honored this year. Woman One is part of the Institute for Women's Health and Leadership at Drexel's College of Medicine.

From their website:

WOMAN ONE is a year-round program that provides multi-year scholarships to talented underrepresented minority women studying medicine, with preference given to those who are committed to serving disadvantaged communities. The WOMAN ONE Award is presented annually to the woman who, by the influence of her actions and the excellence of her example, inspires women of all ages to reach for the highest standards of health and human behavior.

The Institute is headed by Lynn Yeakel, who ran for Senate some years ago and gave Arlen Specter a run for his money.
