The Santa Clarita Valley Man and Woman of the Year Committee has released the names of the 21 nominees and the nominating organizations for 2025 Santa Clarita Woman of the Year.

Selections were made by nominating nonprofit organizations in the Santa Clarita Valley.

Each nominee will be honored at a gala dinner event on Friday, March 2 at the Hyatt Regency Valencia. The choice of 2025 Man and Woman of the Year will be revealed as a surprise to the winning honorees during the gala dinner.

The SCV Man and Woman of the Year is one of the most prestigious honors to be bestowed upon a community volunteer in the SCV. Honorees are selected by a vote of previous Man and Woman of the Year recipients who comprise the Man and Woman of the Year Committee.

Winners of the Man and Woman of the Year honor are selected on the basis of Volunteer service to the community defined by long-time community commitment (not work related). Volunteer service includes, but is not limited to, the years of volunteer service, the type of service, and the impact of the service that was provided to multiple local organizations.

Tickets to the event can be purchased at www.scvmanwomanoftheyear.org.
