On October 25, 2018, Generate Health honored 3 inspiring leaders at the 10th Annual Standing Up for Mothers and Babies Awards Celebration.
The Generate Health board of directors initiated this annual awards event to place a spotlight on the importance of individuals and organizations in diverse sectors contributing to improving the health of women and children.
The Awards Luncheon committee solicited nominees and selected those who embody the purpose of the awards and who will inspire us all. This committee had the difficult task of narrowing a very deserving field of nominees who are serving the St. Louis area’s mothers and babies.
