Associations
that have made ‘invaluable contributions to America and the world’ will be
honoured at an awards dinner in Washington, DC next month.
The
American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) has named six associations in
line for the top honour at its 2022 Power of Associations Awards.
The
American Institute of Architects, BOMA Georgia, California Municipal Utilities
Association, the National Coalition of STD Directors, IEEE, and the Urban Libraries
Council will all receive the prestigious 2022 Summit Award.
Additionally,
15 associations have been honoured with Power of Associations Gold Awards and
27 organizations received Power of Associations Silver Awards.
“The
association community continues to experience rapid change and disruption, and
association leaders continue to be quite agile and innovative in serving the
needs of their members as a result,” said Mark A. Vasquez, CAE, senior program
manager, IEEE TechEthics, and Chair of the Power of Associations Awards
Committee.
“The
committee was impressed by the scope of the activities recognized in this
year’s Power of Associations Awards, which illustrate how associations continue
to lead in challenging times and frequently go above and beyond their missions
to benefit society and improve our quality of life.”
The
ASAE Summit Awards Dinner will take place on September 29, 2022, at the
National Building Museum in Washington, DC.
