The Direct Marketing Association of Washington (DMAW) announced the recipients of its 2026 Membership Recognition Awards, honoring individuals and organizations whose leadership, innovation, service and commitment have made a meaningful impact on the direct marketing and fundraising community.
The honorees will be celebrated during DMAW’s annual Best of Direct Awards Ceremony & Holiday Party, an annual tradition that brings the DMAW community together to recognize industry excellence, celebrate the organization’s legacy and look ahead to a new year of growth, connection and innovation.
“Each of this year’s honorees represents something special about the DMAW community — the willingness to lead, innovate, mentor, volunteer and help our industry move forward,” Raeshawn Crosson, executive director of DMAW, said via a statement. “Best of Direct gives us an opportunity to celebrate not only their individual accomplishments, but also the collective strength of a community that continues to invest in one another and in the future of our profession.”
