2025 Women of the Year

Congressman John Garamendi's 2025 Women of the Year awards are an effort to publicly honor outstanding women residing in California's Eighth Congressional District. The Congressman invites organizations and individuals from each of the counties — Contra Costa and Solano — to submit nominations of exceptional women in their communities. Recognition of the women, who through their work or volunteerism have improved the quality of life in our district, will take place in October.

The quality and content of the nomination letter are critical to the candidate's success. Please try to include specific examples of leadership and all of your nominee's philanthropic efforts and service. As a consideration to all the nominees, please make every effort to keep your nomination confidential.

Nominations may be mailed, faxed, or emailed to the Fairfield District Office at:
