Girl of the Month & Scholarships
Investing in the Next Generation
We believe in fueling the ambitions of the young women in our community. Each month, we honor a "Girl of the Month" from the Upper Perkiomen schools, recognizing high school seniors who demonstrate exceptional academic achievement, community service, and leadership. Through our scholarship funds and the S.T.R.E.A.M. Grant, we provide the financial support needed to turn today’s students into tomorrow’s leaders.
Woman of the Year
Honoring Leadership and Service
For over 50 years, we have recognized an outstanding member of our chapter who exemplifies the spirit of BPW. The Woman of the Year award is presented to a member who has demonstrated exceptional service to our organization and a steadfast commitment to the advancement of women in our community. It is a celebration of the leaders among us who mentor others, drive our mission forward, and embody the heart of the Upper Perkiomen Valley.
Employer of the Year
Celebrating Local Impact
The strength of our community relies on the organizations that support it. Each year, the Upper Perkiomen BPW honors a local business or non-profit that goes above and beyond to improve the lives of our neighbors. From supporting local families to partnering with our chapter on advocacy and outreach, these honorees—such as past recipient The Open Link—represent the very best of our local business landscape.
