March is Women’s History Month, a prime opportunity for each of us to recognize women for the outstanding accomplishments they make all year. To that end, ONYX Magazine, Member Partner Orlando Health and Presenting Sponsor Commissioner Samuel B. Ings are honoring women of color across Florida at the fourth annual ONYX Magazine’s Women on the Move Awards Luncheon. These 22 women, trailblazers who shatter glass ceilings and positively impact their communities, deserve our applause.
