The award was given at the organization's annual Women's Business Networking Event in White Plains. The awards are given by the group each year to women business owners who, like Westchester entrepreneur Lillian Vernon, have demonstrated exceptional service to the community. Nancy Gold, president of The Gold Standard in Katonah, also was a recipient.

"They have made numerous contributions to WEDC throughout the years, including their service on our board of directors. They also helped WEDC found the Alliance of Hudson Valley Women Business Owners (“The Alliance”) and served as its co-chairs from 2006 to 2011.”
