Women are no longer settling for a backseat at the nation’s charitable and activist organizations. Today they are taking leadership roles in activism and founding their own outreach organizations, making a difference in the communities where we all live.

“Exceptional women of all ages are taking lead roles in grassroots activism,” says Carol J. Hamilton, president of L’Oreal Paris. “They are truly making a difference in their communities. By recognizing their achievements, we not only encourage their continued commitment to their causes, but we can inspire the next generation of women in their service to the community.”

L’Oréal Paris announces its third annual “Women of Worth” grassroots awards program to honor women from across the country for their inspiring volunteer work and community enrichment initiatives.

Visit www.WomenofWorth.com to nominate a woman whose volunteerism is making a beautiful difference in your world. This year, 10 “Women of Worth” honorees will receive $5,000 for their most cherished causes and a $5,000 donation will be made on their behalf to ovarian cancer research and awareness initiatives. Nominations are open from April 1st through June 16th 2008. A winner will be chosen via a public vote this fall on the Web site and that person will receive a $25,000 monetary donation to her nonprofit organization.
