Women of the Year Award Recipients
Mother of the Year is a Mother’s Club of Geneva designation, institued in 1967 to pay tribute to a member who has shown exemplary support of her family, community, and the Mother’s Club of Geneva. She has earned our mutual admiration and respect as both a mother and a member.
In 2014, the Geneva Women’s Club changed the Mother of the Year award to the Woman of the Year award to better exemplify the name change of our club and to better represent our membership.
