WSAV's announces 2025 Remarkable Women finalists
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — WSAV and the station's parent company, Nexstar, celebrate Women's History Month each March by honoring 'Remarkable Women' both in the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry as well as across the country.
The nationwide initiative, which started in 2019, honors the impact women have had on public policy, social progress, and quality of life in all 116 markets where Nexstar owns and operates television stations.
Based on nominations with universally selected criteria including community contributions, self-achievement, and family impact, each market selects five local women for consideration as that market's 'Remarkable Woman.' Each market's 'Remarkable Woman' receives a $1,000 contribution on their behalf to a non-profit of their choice.
WSAV's 2025 Remarkable Women Finalists are Angela Brantley, Patt Gunn, Courtney Hampson, Dr. Alicia Johnson and Maggie Smith.
WSAV's Patty Turner will present profiles of the finalists every Tuesday on WSAV News 3 at 5:00 p.m. beginning Tuesday, March 4 through Tuesday, April 1 when our local winner will be announced.
The winner will then join the other honorees in Los Angeles for a special 2-day event, where Nexstar's 'Woman of the Year' will be announced form the group.
The Nexstar Charitable Foundation make a $10,000 contribution on behalf of the 'Nexstar Woman of the Year' to the non-profit organization of her choice.
WSAV appreciates your nominations and help in highlighting Remarkable Women in the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry.
