The PRSA Reciprocal Judge Program is a classic example of how a professional community's commitment to high standards and ethics can make everyone's work better. Every year, each PRSA chapter is paired with another PRSA chapter nationwide to serve as judges for their awards.
Just as another PRSA chapter judges entries for the Philadelphia Pepperpot Awards, the Philadelphia chapter has been matched to provide judges for the 2025 PRSA Hawaii Chapter KOA Awards. The external review process and scoring minimums make PRSA Awards a true acknowledgement of excellence from your peers.
Judging will take place between May 19 - June 8. All PR professionals are eligible to serve as a PRSA Philly judge for the 2025 KOA Awards. Judges with an APR credential or 10+ years of experience in the field are especially encouraged to volunteer. We hope that you will consider lending your expertise to this endeavor.

"I think this initiative is one of the best benefits I get out of my involvement in PRSA Philly.
Serving as a judge for another PRSA chapter’s awards program is not only a great way to help the PR community in another area, but it's also a great learning opportunity. You’ll be exposed to the work of some of the best PR practitioners they have.”
