San Pedro Chamber Women's History Month Reception
In March, the San Pedro Chamber of Commerce will be celebrating Women’s History Month honoring women who have made significant contributions to our community in business, the arts, healthcare, education, and public service. Honorees will be recognized at a reception: “Celebrating Women – Celebrating Giving Back," on Thursday, March 10, 2022, at 5:30 pm.
Why in March and how did the tradition start? In the United States, Women's History Month traces its beginnings back to 1911, to the First International Women’s Day. In 1980, President Carter, issued a proclamation creating an official Women’s History Week and in 1987, recognizing the outstanding contributions of women to our nation’s history, Congress established March as the official Women’s History Month. Each year, the President of the United States issues the official annual proclamation proclaiming March as National Women’s History Month. The San Pedro Chamber looks forward each year to joining in the celebration.
We have opened nominations, and we invite you to nominate an individual who you believe has been a force for good in our community.
