Woman of Achievement and Young Woman of Achievement Awards

The Mercer County Commission on the Status of Women will host its annual Woman of Achievement and Young Woman of Achievement Awards.

The Woman of Achievement Award was established by the commission to honor women in Mercer who volunteer their time to make Mercer County a better place to live, work, and raise a family. This year, the commission will present Woman of Achievement awards to Krystal DeLeon of Trenton, Tricia Nielsen of East Windsor, and Phyllis Oliver of Ewing.

The Young Woman of Achievement Award honors Mercer County high school seniors who have demonstrated outstanding dedication to volunteer work within the county. This year, Young Woman of Achievement awards will be presented to Zurisadai Argueta-Rivera of Trenton, Rithika Bodicherla of Robbinsville, and Bethany Marusky of Hamilton.

The reception will also honor Younity (formerly Womanspace) for its long-running commitment to serving women and all Mercer County residents impacted by domestic abuse.

The deadline to register is Friday, April 4. Tickets are $55 plus transaction fees, and include hors d’oeuvres, light fare, and dessert.
