The YWCA of Hawaii Island will honor local immigration lawyer Rose Bautista and public relations professional Barbara Hastings as its 2016 Remarkable People.
The pair will be honored at the eighth annual Remarkable Person Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. June 2 at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Moku Ola Ballroom.
“The YWCA is proud to recognize Barbara and Rose for their achievements and leadership,” said Kathleen McGilvray, CEO of YWCA of Hawaii Island.
“These glass-ceiling-breaking women have inspired those around them with their raw dedication in business and commitment to helping women, children and community,” McGilvray said.
For more than a quarter century, Bautista has helped immigrants with legal matters and is a tireless advocate on their behalf.
Hastings, a former newspaper journalist and founding partner of Hastings &Pleadwell: A Communication Company, has provided thought-leadership and support to clients and community groups throughout Hawaii.
