When looking back over her life, Betsey Hurwitz-Schwab considers her proudest accompaniment to be helping her Allegany County community.

After she arranged a bus for 55 people from Allegany and Garrett counties to the Women’s March in Washington, D.C., Hurwitz-Schwab became a founding member of the Women’s Action Coalition.

Hurwitz-Schwab’s volunteer-related positions are considerable including as a member of the board of directors for Allegany Center of Life Long Learning, B’er Chaylm Temple and Family Crisis Resource Center. She is also Chair of the County United Way Board. Recently, she helped to start a local Life Long Learning program for seniors.

Change is happening, and women are leading the charge. How does this inspire you as a woman leader?

It gives me hope. It also makes me want to make sure that I give as much as possible to the next generation of women so that they can go forward and make things even better for women – in our country and throughout the world.
