Assemblywoman Stacey Pheffer Amato (D-Howard Beach) recently announced the opening of nominations for her 2nd annual Women of Distinction Awards to celebrate women throughout the 23rd Assembly District who have shown great strength in their actions to foster a brighter future for all. Awards will be given for work in various fields, including health care, business, volunteer work, humanitarian work, education and military service, Pheffer Amato noted.
“Our first annual ceremony was a huge success, so this year we are looking to expand on that success! We can never show complete thanks to these Women of Distinction, but to honor them with a special award is one step we can take to show our gratitude,” said Pheffer Amato, (c., posing with 2018 Women of Distinction).
