The awards celebrate the theme “Ka Holomua Laulima! Nā Wāhine Hoʻoulu Hanauna,” which translates to “Moving Forward Together: Women Educating and Inspiring Generations.” This theme underscores the lasting influence of women’s leadership and mentorship within the community. Categories include Young Woman of Promise for ages 14–21, Woman of Excellence for ages 22–59, and the Unsung Hero award for women aged 60 and older.
