About Our Awards
Participation in community-based diversity recognition events, such as the Harlem YMCA Black Achievers in Industry Award and YWCA Women Achievers Awards, helps us to highlight the successes of our diverse executives. Further, through mentoring and internship alliances with many community-based organizations, including INROADS and The Robert Toigo Foundation, we are able to support the diverse communities in which we work and attract top talent.
