The Living
Legacy Awards are given each year by the Women's International
Center. The Center was founded in 1982 by Gloria Lane as a
non-profit organization dedicated to women and their great contributions
to humanity. Over 100 people have received the awards (not all are
women) and the list reads like a who's who of the most distingished
in the world, ranging from Jehan Sadat to Greer Garson;
from Benazir Bhutto to Maya Angelou; from Kate Smith to Mother
Teresa.
The Living
Legacy Award recipients are united by their stunning contributions
to humanity and the enduring legacies they have given to humankind.
