Each year, clara and Vanguard Skin Specialists honor a woman who has made significant contributions to her family and to her community. We want to recognize her accomplishments and also feature women who inspire all of us to become more generous.

Over the past years, we have been fortunate to spend time with some amazing women:

• 2013 – Dawn Ignatius
• 2014 – Lupita Hastings
• 2015 – Anita Sepp
• 2016 – Amy Boles
• 2017 – Jane Hegstrom

We are taking nominations for the 2019 Extraordinary Woman, whom we select and will honor in May. Our extraordinary women rarely take time to treat themselves, so we will award our winner with aesthetic services, products, and a $1,000 donation to the charity of her choice.

WHO WE LOOK FOR:

A woman who gives generously and sacrificially to others

A woman who makes a meaningful difference in her family and community

A woman who resides in the counties where we have offices -- El Paso, Pueblo, or Teller County
