Check out the recap of our 2022 event to celebrate our 30-year celebration.
Hi Friend,
This week, we held our Annual Awards Gala and 30th Anniversary Celebration. We were joined by more than 500 supporters for an amazing evening where we recognized several influential leaders who are boldly changing the status quo.
During the program, we honored Washington Posts’ Kimberley Strassel with our Barbara K. Olson Woman of Valor Award, Tulsi Gabbard with the Resilience Award — her first event since showing resilience and courage renouncing the Democratic Party — Woke Inc. author and Strive, tech, and healthcare entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy with the Gentleman of Distinction Award, and Executive Chairman of the Diana Davis Spencer Foundation Diana Davis Spencer with our inaugural Lifetime Achievement Award, which going forward will be named after the philanthropist leader.
Independent Women’s Forum was founded 30 years ago to fillcritical gaps in the conservative movement and to provide a voice and advocate for millions of women who reject the women-as-victim narrative.
From a small organization focused just on media, IWF is now a persuasive powerhouse, a leading voice on social and earned media with multiple policy centers, a law center, and a rapidly growing grassroots network of women nationwide. We provide better messaging to conservative leaders and we’re a go-to resource for Hill testimony and innovative policy ideas.
We have come a long way and have accomplished great things since our founding. But the need for IW is clearer today than ever before.
Today, the challenges we face aresimply shocking.

It was a lovely celebration organized by IWF’s EVP Amber Schwartz showcasing the work of IWF and its awardees to better our communities and strengthen our country.
