Read more about our LWVMC Honorees and their exlempary contributions to Metro Columbus  communities with compassion and democratic means.

 Democracy is hard work. Democracy is "power of the people” from the Greek words "demos" which means "people" and "kratos" which means "power". It is not about blaming. It is about leading the community, bringing people together to solve a problem or pursue an idea, and then providing an infrastructure to sustain the shared goal.  

"Democracy in Action" is our major fundraising event.  The Award ceremony provides the opportunity to come together with friends, supporters, and community leaders to recognize outstanding individuals and groups. It also helps us sustain the very actions that advocate for foundational democratic principles. Your support goes directly to the League's work to protect and defend our democracy. Together we ensure our elections are free, fair and accessible; protect our environment; and reduce the influence of money in our elections.
