Women of Distinction
Celebrating women who inspire today's Girl Scouts to become tomorrow's leaders.
Each fall, in honor of Girl Scout founder Juliette Gordon Low's birthday, Girl Scouts of Greater New York hosts the Women of Distinction benefit.
A Woman of Distinction is a role model, an influential leader in their industry and community, and someone who, through their deeds and actions, exemplifies the leadership ideals inherent in Girl Scouting.
