Thank you to all who attended, sponsored, and volunteered at the 5th Annual Martin Luther King Jr., Leadership and Diversity Awards last Friday. You support of Coro Pittsburgh, and commitment to transforming our region through ethical and effective leadership is so appreciated.
The MLK Awards seek to put on display the very best examples of leadership and diversity in our region, and that was certainly exemplified by this year's nominees.
We were honored to have Allegheny County Chief Executive, Rich Fitzgerald deliver the keynote address, and Lynn Cullen serve as the event's Mistress of Ceremonies.
Some exciting announcements regarding Coro Pittsburgh were made, with Sala Udin announcing his transition to President Emeritus, and introducing Dr. Gregory Crowley as Coro Pittsburgh's President and CEO. We are so grateful for both Sala and Greg's leadership and service.
Of course, we were thrilled to recognize this year's awardees. The Diversity Award for a small organization (50 or fewer employees) was given to the Women and Girls Foundation.
The Diversity Award for a large organization (more than 50 employees) was given to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Leadership Award was presented to former City Councilman, Doug Shields.
Congratulations to all of the 2012 MLK Awards nominees, and award recipients. Thank you, for the work that you do.
We look forward to celebrating with all of you next January.
