The 6th Annual Elly Awards Luncheon was hosted earlier this afternoon by The Women's Forum of New York benefiting The Education Fund of the Women's Forum. The awards, named for the Women's Forum founder, Elinor Guggenheimer, honored outstanding women leaders, including Kay Koplovitz, Rosie Rios, and Hamilton's Phillipa Soo.

The Women's Forum of New York is the city's premier organization of women leaders. The invitation only membership of more than 500 women represents the highest levels of achievement across all professional sectors from finance to fine arts. Started in 1974, the Women's Forum of New York is the founding flagship of the International Women's Forum, a global organization of nearly 6,000 outstanding women leaders in over 74 Forums around the world.

The Women's Forum of New York is dedicated to the advancement of women's leadership through programs which enrich members lives personally and professionally, through the Education Fund which enables talented women whose potential has been derailed by extreme adversity to resume their education and through the Corporate Board Initiative which extends and expands the contribution of women leaders through board participation.

The Education Fund is an educational and charitable arm of The Women's Forum of New York, established under a separate corporate governance as a 501(c)3 tax deductible organization. Since 1987, the Fund has provided grants to women over 35 who have both demonstrated high potential and faced extreme adversity, which has disrupted their education and derailed their futures. These women fall outside the scope of most traditional scholarship programs and our grants help them complete their education and get their careers and lives back on track. Funding is provided by member donation and an annual fundraising event, The Elly Awards, which honors outstanding women leaders. Over the past 29 years, grants totaling over $1 million have helped nearly 200 women overcome adversity and lift themselves and their children up the economic ladder.
