Strong, Smart, and Bold Awards

The Strong, Smart, and Bold Awards is an annual celebration hosted by Girls Inc. of the Greater Capital Region to honor those who embody and advance our mission of inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold. Each year, we take the opportunity to recognize individuals both within and beyond our organization who make a lasting impact on the girls we serve. The awards highlight standout achievements such as “Girl of the Year” for our Albany, Schenectady, and Troy sites, the “Woman of the Year” from our Council of Women for Girls, and both Corporate and Community Partners of the Year.

This signature event, presented by Mazzone Hospitality, includes a cocktail-style reception, a silent auction to benefit Girls Inc., and live musical performances. It serves as a powerful evening of inspiration and empowerment, where community members come together to celebrate those who make positive change possible.
