At this year’s annual Executive Women’s International (EWI) Gala, Irth took home all three peer-nominated Columbus chapter awards. Congratulations to
“Winning the Representative of the Year is an affirmation of my personal and professional abilities, dedication, and impact within the organization. It signifies that my accomplishments and contributions as a representative have been acknowledged and celebrated by my fellow EWI Columbus chapter members. I feel a sense of pride knowing that I have positively represented Irth and hope that I have inspired fellow members,” said Tiffani Henry, Irth’s Sr. Director of Operations and Representative of the Year award-winner.
In addition to Tiffani, who served as the President Elect, ASIST Scholarship Chairwoman and Retention and Recruitment Director for the chapter, Manager of Customer Support Sandy Jennings was the chapter’s Fundraising Director and Gala Committee member, and Customer Success Manager Jordan Marciniak was the Communications Director and Gala Committee Member.
Sandy ran several successful raffle and fundraising campaigns as the fundraising committee chair. Jordan’s outstanding work on the chapter’s newsletters and website and the exponential growth of the chapter’s social media reach drew the attention of the EWI Corporate Board.
In addition to chapter member recognition, EWI Columbus awarded $8,000 in Adult Students in Scholastic Transition (ASIST) scholarships to four applicants in the Columbus community at the Gala.
This EWI program provides support to central Ohio adult students in transition. Applicants are often single parents, just entering the workforce, or displaced workers living within the EWI Columbus chapter boundaries. They must meet financial and educational requirements and clearly outline their career goals.
