Description

The Bermuda Business and Professional Women’s Club Sojourner Truth Awardees 1967-2002 Kindle Edition

“I had to make my own living and my own opportunity … Don’t sit down and wait for the opportunities to come. You have to get up and make them.” – Madam C.J. Walker

Inside this book you will find photos and biographies of Bermudian female trailblazers, pioneers and modern-day women who fulfilled their dreams. It presents a positive image of women who made their marks in life. These women are remarkable in their dedication and commitment to hard work and their willingness to succeed against the odds. They helped to blaze the trail for all Bermudian women to follow.

These biographies will encourage all women to be inspired and never give up on their dreams. This biographical treasure provides a great source of professional encouragement and an invaluable service to education, politics, church, tourism, nursing, hairdressing, beauty, dress-making, business, law and community service.

The Bermuda Business and Professional Women’s Club celebrates the contributions of these women and the founder of the club, the late Mrs. Lilian Minors. Without her vision to start a chapter in Bermuda, we would not have recorded their work and the humble sacrifices they made. Let their biographies and stories touch your SOUL and be a beacon to the women of Bermuda to strive, to work hard, to volunteer your services and to dedicate yourself to serve your island home.

Thank you to the women who paved the way so that the present generation of women will be inspired with admiration, and the future generation of women will reflect on the sacrifices they made to become successful.
