Congratulating Margarita Olivarez of Lubbock on earning a 2009 Women of Excellence Award from the YWCA of Lubbock.
The resolution emphasizes the importance of community figures like Margarita Olivarez, who serves as a role model for future generations. Her professional excellence as a national forecast leader at AT&T Wireless and her dedication to community service through initiatives like founding a Girl Scout troop highlight the dual role of women in advancing both business and societal interests. Recognizing individuals like Olivarez not only celebrates personal achievement but also inspires others to engage in community service and leadership roles.
HCR179 is a concurrent resolution honoring Margarita Olivarez for her remarkable contributions and achievements, recognized by the YWCA of Lubbock with the Women of Excellence Award. This award, established in 1989, aims to recognize the vital roles women play in both the civic and professional realms. Margarita's selection for this tribute showcases her exceptional business acumen and her significant impact as a community leader.
While HCR179 serves to celebrate individual achievement, it can also be viewed in the broader context of the ongoing dialogue surrounding women's contributions to society. The resolution underscores the ongoing need to highlight such contributions, particularly in fields still predominantly occupied by men. This focus on women's empowerment challenges the persistent gender disparities present in business and leadership roles, proposing a shift towards greater recognition and appreciation.
