Aiming High Awards Luncheon 2007

 At Legal Momentum's Aiming High luncheon, we salute the accomplishments of extraordinary women who have broken through to the top of their profession. The success of our Honorees brings the promise that women's voices, views and talents are becoming a permanent part of our nation's corporate culture. Their courage to aim high has helped blaze a trail to guide millions of women and girls toward opportunities once closed to them.

In March 2007, at our 7th Annual event, we honored five extraordinary women who represent some of the most well respected and powerful women in the American business community, and whose own remarkable careers exemplify our goals for women?s advancement. A record-breaking $1.4 million was raised to support our programs.
