An Esteemed Panel Of Evaluators
An esteemed panel of evaluators includes education, media and other experts as well as parents, children, librarians, performing artists, producers, medical and business professionals, authors, scientists and others.
The Evaluation Process
MCA evaluators volunteer their time and are bound by a strict code of ethics which ensures expert and objective analysis free from any manufacturer association.
The evaluation process uses a proprietary methodology in which items are scored on a number of elements including production quality, design, educational value, entertainment value, originality, appeal and cost. Each item is judged on its own merit.
MCA evaluators are especially interested in items that help families grow emotionally, physically and spiritually; are morally sound and promote good will; and are inspirational and uplifting.
We are not a pay-for-award program. An award is not guaranteed.
A Philanthropic Spirit
Once the evaluations are complete, most items submitted for consideration are donated to schools, libraries, hospitals, shelters and charities.
