On behalf of the Board of Directors of NAWBO South Jersey, we’d like to thank our Members, Alliances and Sponsors along with the community at large for their support in participating in our 21st Annual 2025 Beyond the Glass Ceiling Awards Galla! We are humbled to be able to honor women in business and non-profit organizations for excellence in their respective fields each year, acknowledging notable contributions impacting others throughout the region. We couldn’t do it without you. Please enjoy the photos and we hope to see you again next year!
If you are interested in a further review of the 2025 Gala Photos or purchase of photos of yourself and/or group, please reach out to our photographer, Tina Markoe at tina@tinaphotos.com who will be happy to help you make a purchase.
