Congratulations Son!!
"Thank you for selecting me as the Port Authority’s recipient of the YMCA 2011 Black Achiever in Industry Award. Last week’s ceremony reminds us of the importance and impact of giving. Having received scholarship monies from Coca-Cola and the United Negro College Fund (which enabled me to attend my first year of undergrad studies at Clark Atlanta University, an Historically Black College/University) and having coordinated a clothing drive for a friend displaced by Hurricane Katrina, I cannot overestimate the power of giving, as a recipient and as a giver, has made in my life. I hope those in attendance found inspiration to give back and make a difference in the lives of others." R-
