Pat Yarrington, CFO of Chevron is the FWASF 2013 Financial Woman of the Year

The Financial Women's Association (FWA) of San Francisco has selected Patricia E. (Pat) Yarrington, as the 2013 Financial Woman of the Year. This award recognizes Yarrington for her decades of corporate financial leadership at Chevron and role as the chairman of the San Francisco Federal Reserve board of directors. Yarrington joined Chevron as a financial analyst over 30 years ago and gradually gained responsibilities culminating with her designation as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer in 2009.

The Financial Woman of the Year Award recognizes Pat Yarrington's focus and commitment to her evolving financial career, support of her colleagues and future women leaders, and contribution to the larger financial community through her involvement with the San Francisco Federal Reserve. She is an outstanding role model for the FWA.

The net proceeds from the Financial Woman of the Year Luncheon benefit the FWASF Scholarship Fund. The Fund provides graduate and undergraduate scholarships to San Francisco Bay Area women pursuing careers in the fields of finance or the financial services industry. To date, the FWA has awarded over $1.8 million in scholarship grants to more than 200 Bay Area women.

Save September 27, 2013 and watch for future announcements about the 18th Annual Financial Woman of the Year Luncheon celebrating Pat Yarrington, to be held at the Hyatt Regency, San Francisco.

Registration opens in July, and sponsorship opportunities are available; please contact FWA Sponsorship Co-Chairs Paige Venable and Lise Honore for more information:
