The Elizabeth Blackwell Award is given by Hobart and William Smith College to a woman who has both achieved and used her talents to serve others. The person receiving the award must meet these qualifications because that is what Elizabeth Blackwell did in her life. Dr. Blackwell worked hard, against great obstacles, to become all that she could and wanted to be. Her concern about social justice led her to use her skills to help others.
