Established in 2010, the Writing Women into History Award recognizes women who have been role models in the community and have made substantial contributions to the quality of services and opportunities in McDonough County, whether these are civic, economic, educational, aesthetic, environmental, or health related. The Macomb Feminist Network decided to initiate this award because women and their roles in society have frequently been left out of traditional history texts. The award draws attention to the many projects women have brought to fruition in McDonough County.
