You can make a difference in your local community by nominating an individual who is making a difference in the lives of women and/or girls for this empowerment award and grant.

At Royal Neighbors, we strive to create a ripple effect of women’s empowerment. Through our signature women’s empowerment program, Nation of Neighbors℠, we empower women by recognizing and supporting their work to empower women and girls through a nonprofit, business, or program.

Nation of Neighbors recipients are influential leaders who exemplify our “neighbor-helping-neighbor” mission of community service. The nomination period has closed for 2022 and nominations are no longer being accepted. Recipients for 2022 are expected to be announced in July. Watch our website for announcements about our 2023 program.

Past recipients include:

Brenda Rose, founder of Firefly Creek Ranch, provides a safe home and aftercare services for women who have experienced sexual trauma and human trafficking.
Pam Frasco created Project NICU to provide connection, support, and community to everyone involved in the NICU journey.
Regina Fitzpatrick provides social and economic justice for those in need of community, support, and resources for a better life through her work with Community of Hope Ministries.
