The award is sponsored by the Danube Swabian Foundation of the USA together with the Abt Family in memory of Maria Abt. Maria was one of the original members of the Danube Swabian family in the United States of America. She was active in the Milwaukee Donauschwaben group, the friendliest helper when needed and she first led the Youth group and then the Frauengruppe for many, many years. She organized the Danube Swabian cultural exhibits at Holiday Folk Fair and Germanfest. Maria was also the Landesverbandfrauengruppeleiterin.
