Mujeres de Impacto Luncheon, in celebration of International Women’s Day, honors women whose leadership and influence create lasting change in Palm Beach County.
Join us for an elegant and empowering luncheon and silent auction designed to honor the achievements, impact, and leadership of women across industries. This event brings together community leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, advocates, and changemakers for a day of celebration, connection and inspiration.
VIDA AWARD RECIPIENT
At the heart of the luncheon is the presentation of the inaugural VIDA Award. The word VIDA means LIFE in Spanish and reflects the essence of this distinguished honor. Each letter carries special significance: V is for Valiente (Brave), I is for Influencia (Influence), D is for de Damas (of Ladies), and A is for Admirables (Admirable). Together, these elements recognize admirable women whose courage, leadership, and influence create a lasting impact and strengthen the communities in which we live.
This year, HHRC is proud to recognize Julie Kime as the inaugural VIDA Award recipient. Through her unwavering support of the Hispanic community and her broader commitment to service, Julie has driven meaningful and enduring change. Join us as we celebrate the Vida of Julie Kime and honor a legacy of leadership, compassion, and impact.
