Women of Worth 2012 Nominations Now Open

We've all heard the iconic beauty slogan, "Because You're Worth It," but how many of us really celebrate our worth? That's why L’Oréal Paris is encouraging us to acknowledge and nominate a woman in our lives who's making a difference in her community with their "Women of Worth" campaign.

Ten motivational honorees will be chosen for their momentous contributions. Each honoree receives $10,000 for her charitable cause, and one National Honoree will be chosen via a public online vote to receive an additional $25,000 for her charity. All ten honorees will be recognized, and the National Honoree will be announced, at an awards ceremony and dinner hosted by Hearst Magazines and L'Oréal Paris in New York City.

Whether she's combating childhood obesity by leading a crusade toward implementing healthier food choices in school cafeterias or inspiring young girls in underserved communities, we all know someone who's worthy of this honor.
