Description

Join Us for the 2025 Best of Direct Awards
Ceremony & Holiday Party!

Celebrate with DMAW as we honor the best in direct marketing and fundraising at our annual Best of Direct Awards Ceremony and Holiday Party!

National Housing Center, 1201 15th Street NW, Washington, DC
Wednesday, December 3, beginning 4:30 pm

This year’s celebration is extra special as we mark two incredible milestones – the 70th anniversary of the Direct Marketing Association of Washington (DMAW) and the moment Donna Tschiffely, after almost 18 years of service, passes the torch to Raeshawn Crosson as the new Executive Director.

Join us as we honor DMAW’s proud legacy, celebrate its vibrant community, and look ahead to an exciting new chapter of growth and innovation. It’s an evening filled with recognition, reflection, and holiday cheer!
