During Women’s History Month, Nashville joins more than 500 global communities in honoring exceptional women leaders. Local organizations, associations, and corporations nominate women for special recognition as the embodiment of ATHENA’s spirit. This spirit shines through exemplary leadership, superior performance, commitment to community, and unselfish assistance to women and women’s issues. Through local efforts, ATHENA also grants scholarships to high school seniors and professional women who want to continue their education.
Nominations for the 35th Annual ATHENA Gala are open from November 15, 2024-December 16, 2024.
The ATHENA Scholarship Program honors the achievements of women in the greater Nashville area. This year the program will award scholarships to high school seniors and non-traditional students, such as those who have graduated high school three or more years ago and strive to continue their education.
