Each year, the current president of the Association of Real Estate Women (AREW) selects a member or members who have made outstanding contributions to receive the association's prestigious Founders' Award. The recipients for 2012, presented at AREW's Members-Only Luncheon at the downtown W Hotel and selected by Jennifer Carey, JLC Environmental Consultants, were Madelyne Kirch, Sun & Moon Marketing Communications, and Jane Lyons, Rhodes Associates. Faith Hope Consolo, Prudential Douglas Elliman, initiated the awards during her term as AREW president.
