THE AWARD
 
L'Oréal Paris will donate up to $25,000 to benefit one National Women Of Worth Honoree's most cherished cause.
We are excited to announce that the 2012 Women of Worth Call for Nominations is now open! Through Women of Worth, L'Oréal Paris is committed to recognizing women who embody the dedication and spirit of volunteerism. A Woman of Worth is someone who saw a need in her community and took action. She's a role model and living proof that all women are worth it. You know her! And now it's your opportunity to introduce her to the world. Each honoree will receive a $10,000 donation to her non profit organization and the National Honoree at an awards ceremony held in New York and she will receive an additional donation of $25,000 from L'Oréal Paris in her name.

Inspiration Behind Women of Worth


More than 30 years ago, L'Oréal Paris coined the phrase "Because I'm Worth It" to celebrate a woman's worth and build her self-esteem. In 1997, as an extension of this sentiment, L'Oréal Paris proudly partnered with The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF) to raise money and awareness in the fight against ovarian cancer.

Seven years ago our signature phrase came to life in a new way. L'Oréal established Women Of Worth - a grassroots program and award that honors women who serve others in their communities.

Who is a Woman Of Worth? She's an inspiring volunteer, an outstanding achiever, and a beautiful person who's making a difference in her community. She sees a need around her and doesn't hesitate to get involved. Whether she's empowering women, mentoring children, helping survivors to heal and advocating for seniors, her efforts are tireless. Her spirit is unbreakable.
