DANVERS, MA — The North Shore Chamber of Commerce is looking to celebrate 20 area businesswomen as part of its inaugural Diamond Awards program.

The program is designed to recognize women of leadership and influence in the region who "demonstrate a commitment and passion for serving others while leading with purpose, excelling in their career and making an impact."

A panel of judges will select 20 women who will be spotlighted in the September issue of the Chamber's new Impact Magazine. They will also be recognized at a Power of Women breakfast on Sept. 21 at Kernwood Country Club in Salem.
