MCA Premier Awards Currently Available to be Sponsored
MCA has gone from presenting less than 20 premier awards in 2007 (C4, I&L, and Ground) to presenting over 120 premier awards in 2025.
Sponsorship is very important to this program since MCA provides amazing heirloom awards to our Marines, Spouses, and Sailors that serve with them at our various events each year. Sponsorship covers the cost of the award, seats for the award winners and their family members/guests as well as travel for the award winner’s spouse or parent up to $1,000. In return, the sponsor receives their corporate name on the base of the trophy, a representative of the company can go on stage for that individual award presentation, a brief (up to 2 lines) statement about the company will be read/shown during the ceremony, 6 seats will be provided for the sponsor along with private reception passes, and the award winner and at least one guest will be seated with the award sponsor. Please email LeeAnn Mitchell for costs. Those available awards will be sold on a first come first sold basis and are as follows:
TECOM is adding 5 new awards to be presented at our Marine Corps Association Training & Education Command Awards Dinner which we will be hosting on 7 August at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center. Those 5 new awards are:

DCI is adding 1 new award – Meteorologist of the Year. That new award will be presented at the Information Awards Dinner on Thursday, 29 May at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center.
The first MCA Spouse Awards will be presented on Thursday, 25 September during MCA’s Annual Meeting & Spouse Awards Luncheon. There will be a total of 8 award winners. Categories will be Community Catalyst of the Year Awards and Change Maker of the Year Awards. Each category will have winners selected from each of the following 4 regions:
- Eastern U.S.
- Western U.S.
- Pacific
- Europe/Middle East
Spouse Award Sponsors will also be able to attend up to 3 Spouse Summits of their choice and have a booth at the Spouse Summits where they can talk with spouses and provide materials on their companies. They can also send up to 2 people to each of those 3 Spouse Summits selected. Their logos will be included on the program, on signage at those Summits, and sponsor names will also be included on our registration pages for each summit and on event reminders.
We anticipate additional awards will become available after budgets are set for 2025. If you’d like to get your name on a list to sponsor an award at one of the following events, please email me and let me know.
