The more than $170,000 raised will help the organization continue to empower girls to grow into leaders who make a difference in their communities and beyond. The Lifetime Achievement Award for Philanthropy went to Nancy Brinker. The other honorees were Christine DelVecchio, Sophia Eccleston, Marti LaTour and Wendy Sartory Link. ‘Each year, the Emerald Awards shine a light on outstanding women whose passion, perseverance and leadership help shape stronger communities,’ said Lisa Johnson, CEO of the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida. ‘Their stories inspire our girls to dream bigger and lead with courage, confidence and character.’ ABOVE: (l-r) Eccleston, Sartory Link, Brinker, LaTour and DelVecchio. Photo provided by Premier Photo Palm Beach
