About the Odyssey of a Woman Award

The Odyssey of a Woman Award (OWA) celebrates the achievements of our local heroines who are making a difference in the community. These phenomenal women seldom know that people recognize their great efforts to enhance the quality of life here in the Charlotte area. This program is designed to show our local heroines that we appreciate their service, dedication, and willingness to make a difference in society.

​

These honorees exhibit the following characteristics:

• Dedicates herself passionately to service in the Charlotte community

• Desires to excel and focuses on the long-term success of an organization

• Embraces diversity, seeks new ideas, listens, and learns from others

• Inspires others through leading by example, self-determination, and enlightenment

​

A portion of the proceeds from the OWA Gala will be used to help local women further their education by awarding scholarships and creating partnerships through the Yellow Tea Rose Foundation of NC (YTR). YTR is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, charitable corporation that secures and distributes contributions for the sole purpose of empowering and educating women in the Charlotte Metro community.
