Lauren Ralph Receives Recognition

"The Zonta Club of Columbus developed the Outstanding Young Women Program to recognize and encourage high school senior women who demonstrate excellence in leadership, scholarship and service."

"Each central Ohio high school is invited to nominate outstanding young women. Each nominee submits an application packet that contains information about leadership, scholarship and service achievements as well as short essay responses to questions related to these three areas. Each nominee is also required to obtain two recommendations from individuals that can speak to the nominee's abilities and behaviors that demonstrate leadership, scholarship and service."

This weekend, Lauren Ralph, one of twelve nominees in central Ohio, spoke at the Zonta Club of Columbus and was recognized for her outstanding contributions to the community as well as her leadership skills.
