GERT BEADLE AWARD
[who][what][how]

The aim of the GERT BEADLE AWARD is to recognize the value of the invisible work that is done at the community level to enhance women's equality.  The Kelowna Women's Resource Centre understands that the process of change towards women's equality is a slow one, and that it requires perseverance, determination, commitment, and above all solidarity and teamwork.  This is why the criterion for this award is a broad one - we hope to recognize work done at all levels, as well as the diverse needs, experiences, and values of women.

The nominee must be a woman living in the Kelowna area, over the age of 16 and committed to women's equality and social justice.  The winner needs to be available the evening of March 8th 2008, to accept the award at KWRC's International Women's Day Event to be held at Okanagan College.

1. Nomination form filled out completely (one for each nominee)
