ABC 7 News - Working Women
Working Woman Header
The Washington, DC area is home to many extraordinary women. They are some of the most diverse and important women in the country. They are mothers, daughters, sisters and friends. They are businesswomen, civil servants, homemakers, teachers, professionals and volunteers. The one thing these women have in common is the capacity to care and they are making a difference in the lives of other people. That's why for the past 12 years, ABC 7 and your local Toyota Dealers have been honoring the many ways that women are making a difference at home, at work and in our community.
