Through the upcoming weeks we will be recognizing past winners of our Dignity & Respect Champion Award. This week we honor Michael Smith, our August 2010 Champion.
Helping people find work who have not been given a chance before is exactly why Michael Smith loves his job. By helping those with mental challenges and financial struggles to lead more independent lives, Smith sees everyday how transforming opportunities restore dignity and respect in both individuals and communities. Nominated by Arlene Robinson and Kim Simpson, his colleagues at Goodwill, Smith is the recipient of last August’s Dignity & Respect Champion Award for his work as CEO, along with his dedication to the organization for the last 20 years.
There is still time to nominate your favorite champion of dignity and respect for our August 2011 honor. Do you know a person who works tirelessly to promote inclusion in your community? Let us know and let them be recognized!
