Black woman caregivers to be honored at WHUT’s Black Women Soar Event

March 31 at 6pm
at National Harbor, Maryland

WHUT is honored to present Black Women Soar, a reception dedicated to celebrating the remarkable Black women whose strength, compassion, and leadership shape the caregiving community. From those caring for family members to professionals supporting others every day, caregivers carry profound responsibility with grace, resilience, and heart. 

This event shines a light on their stories—uplifting their achievements, honoring their impact, and creating space for them to inspire the next generation of caregivers and young professionals. This year, WHUT and WHUR invite the community to take part through a special digital and on‑air contest, offering a meaningful opportunity to recognize the caregivers who make a difference in your life.
