DD WOMEN ACHIEVERS 2017 AWARDS:
DD WOMEN ACHIEVERS 2017 AWARDS DECLARED on 10th MARCH '17.
We have received more than 120 preliminary nominations, and our judging committee short listed and selected 35 Nominations in the Preliminary Round. Those who are selected for the FINAL ROUND are already informed and given the Final Application Form.
As we have received a larger volume of very good nominations, we couldn't include many very well deserved candidates for the final round this year. We are very sorry about that. For those who couldn't find a place in the final list this year, we assure that, their candidature will be considered in the coming years and so don't keep any kind of disappointment. (Its not because of our fault or not because they are not deserved)
We like to thank all the nominators for their time to fill the nominations and supporting the DD to find out the successful women in our community.
We anticipate your future support and cooperation and see you all at the Toronto City Hall to recognize the 12 DD Women Achievers 2017 and to celebrate International Women's Day. - Chair, DD Award Committee 2017
