Storytellers Contest: Celebrating Women Who Uplift and Inspire (DEMO)

Presented by Target and the Massachusetts Conference for Women

Target and the Massachusetts Conference for Women present storyteller contest to celebrate women sharing joy

Target and the Massachusetts Conference for Women are coming together to celebrate women who are discovering new ways to infuse joy into their communities, their workplaces, and their families.

Whether small or grand, lighthearted or poignant, spur-of-the-moment or carefully planned, the acts of these women lift others up by creating opportunities for joy, and this is our chance to thank them.

Examples include:

  • Creating a book club or a recipe train to keep her community connected while isolated
  • Building a virtual kudos jar to recognize the contributions of colleagues while working from home
  • Starting a help line for neighbors needing support during COVID or winter’s mass power outages
  • Pivoting the entire organization to virtual in mere days with grace, and now leading the transition into the hybrid workplace
  • Providing care for others with a smile (teachers, medical or service industry workers).

Share your story, or nominate another for a chance to win a free ticket to the Massachusetts Conference for Women. Three select submissions will be featured on the Conference main stage plus receive a $250 Target gift card!
