"We do this every year," Wherrett said. "This is where we celebrate six outstanding El Paso female leaders who have done the most to positively impact the community and move us forward."
This year's honorees range from a registered nurse to a UTEP professor.
"We feel it's very important to celebrate success, and that is a part of El Paso Inc.'s mission, which is a little bit different from the rest of media's mission," Wherrett explained. "You need to recognize people that are doing really great things in order to inspire others to reach their potential, and really tell these stories. I mean it is part of our history."
