On Saturday, March 29, 2025, the Beech Room at The Washington Times Building was filled with warmth, inspiration, and purpose as community members gathered for the DMV HerStory Awards, hosted by the Women’s Federation for World Peace USA (WFWP) in celebration of Women’s History Month.

The first quarter of 2025 was a powerful launchpad for the Global Women’s Peace Network (GWPN) as we boldly lifted the theme:
“The Feminine Edge: Why Women’s Leadership Matters.” Thanks to the passion and dedication of WFWP leaders and partners, 20 vibrant events were hosted, co-sponsored, or attended by WFWP chapters, reaching 288 women, with 42% attending for the very first time!
