PARSIPPANY, N.J.—DSM North America is hosting the 33rd Annual Tribute to Women and Industry Awards Dinner, and is donating $45,000 in cash and services to the YWCA of Central New Jersey’s TWIN (Tribute to Women and Industry) Program to help the organization provide career and mentoring services to the women it serves. This year’s event will be held on Wed., April 18, 2012 at the Hanover Marriott Hotel in Parsippany.
"We are honored to host this year’s TWIN Awards Dinner and are proud of our decades-long relationship with a program that supports and mentors women throughout central New Jersey, and helps to promote a more diverse and inclusive business environment," said Hugh C. Welsh, president and general counsel, DSM, who is serving as honorary chair of the event.
The TWIN program originated in New Jersey in 1975 and annually recognizes outstanding businesswomen and their companies. Its mission is to honor women who have excelled in their fields and made significant contributions to industry in executive, managerial and professional roles, as well as to salute corporations whose policies and practices encourage high achievement by women and who promote equal advancement opportunities for women of diverse background.
Earlier this year, life'sDHA™, a subsidiary of DSM, partnered with the National Center for Creative Aging (NCCA) to bring the Beautiful Minds: Finding Your Lifelong Potential campaign to Americans.
