equipoise fund’s atta girl awards
WHAT DOES YOUR VOICE SOUND LIKE IN A BIGGER SPACE?
The Atta Girl Award winners know the answer. Their efforts to support, enhance and inspire the lives of others in their community are the reason we devised the Atta Girl Awards. We have celebrated these women at our annual Atta Girl events, the first of which took place in 2006. Mickey Babcock, Founder and President of the Equipoise Fund, says The Atta Girl Awards give Wyoming women and girls a “butt-boost” for all the lives they lift.
The Atta Girls are awarded in three categories: vision, voice and visibility:
Vision Award: highlights the efforts of a single individual to creatively address a need in one’s own community, whether that community is local, regional or statewide.
Voice Award: honors someone who strives to give voice to those who don’t have one.
Visibility Award: celebrates that person who has heightened the awareness of women in underserved or underrepresented segments of society.
“Each of our winners is selfless, tireless and most importantly, creative in finding solutions to their problems,” said Babcock. “Each of our nominees is deserving of recognition. But their energy and creativity were hallmarks of their approach to problem-solving, inspiring to others, and these attributes are what really make them stand out.”
The Atta Girl awards will return as we complete our research and evaluation process (aka, "noodling".)
