District 2 Patricia Martin Crystal Prism Award

The District 2 Patricia Martin Crystal Prism Award was established by District Two of the American Advertising Federation. A very special award, it is given from the heart of the club and decided by the Board of Directors of the DC Ad Club.

The District 2 Patricia Martin Crystal Prism Award recognizes the efforts of one individual without whose efforts the club would not be the success it is. The award is given to that person who goes above and beyond the call of duty, giving of his/her time selflessly for the advancement of the club.

Often described as the award for the “unsung hero,” the District 2 Patricia Martin Crystal Prism Award bestows the honor and the gratitude of the club to that person who has moved the club forward, without seeking reward or gain for him/herself.

It is truly a cherished award; not usually given every year. It is given only to those very few, very special, dedicated souls who nurture and grow our club.
