These generous sponsors honored the 2010 Women of the Year recipients by making donations to the RICW Project, a non-porofit corporation that supports the mission and projects of the Rhode Island Commission on Women. Donations support such projects as the the Freda H. Goldman Education Award.

The Goldman Award provides opportunities for women to continue their education endeavors by assisting with expenditures not normally covered by traditional educational scholarships such as child care, clothing, supplies and other related expenses.
