MEMBER RECOGNITION
As part of the mission of ABWA, our Chapter participates in recognizing members for their outstanding contributions nationally and to the Chapter. Each year, we nominate a member for each of the following awards:
​
  • Top Ten Nominee - The most prestigious honor bestowed on an ABWA member is the coveted Top Ten award which recognizes members for their professional achievements, community engagement, and contributions to the American Business Women's Association. 
 
  • Woman of the Year - A long standing tradition in ABWA is to recognize a member that has made a notable contribution to the success of the Chapter in the current and/or past award years.
​
  • Protege of the Year - An award recognizing an ABWA member within their first two years of membership who has directly contributed to the success of the Chapter in the current and/or past award years.
