Honors continue for two of our members, Vikki Millender-Morrow and Michelle Wells!

Vikki was recently honored as one of the Atlanta Business League's Top 100 Black Women of Influence. Started in 1994, the list reflects black women in the metro Atlanta community who have reached senior level positions within their profession, are leading entrepreneurs, or have attained the ability to influence large public bodies politically and in government. In addition to professional accomplishments, honorees maintain significant involvement and participation in community and civic activities. Previously with AT&T for many years and then serving in a variety of non-profit leadership roles, Vikki is currently the President and CEO of the National Black Arts Festival and joined ARCS last year.

The Woman of the Year Award recognizes a member who has exemplified good stewardship of WIT's efforts in her field and community.
