In October, Frank Giordano was presented with awards from Roman Catholic High School and Susan G. Komen.
Frank Giordano, President and CEO of The Philly POPS and President and CEO of Atlantic Trailer Leasing Company, was honored to receive two prestigious honors in October 2017. A resident of Moorestown, Giordano has long been involved in community leadership, civic activities and entrepreneurial businesses.
On Oct. 10, Giordano was presented the 26th Annual Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award from Roman Catholic High School at The Union League in Philadelphia. On Oct. 14, he was presented the “Friend of the Fight” Award from Susan G. Komen at the 16th Annual Pink Tie Ball in Philadelphia.
For more than a quarter of a century Roman Catholic’s Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award has honored business and community leaders who demonstrate a commitment to the Delaware Valley through their distinguished service and steadfast philanthropy. Commitment, service and philanthropy were the values of Roman Catholic High School’s founding father, Thomas E. Cahill. It is because of his benevolent vision that today 1,000 young men from across the Delaware Valley have the opportunity to be the pride of 127 years of accomplishment at Roman Catholic. Leaders like Cahill and Frank Giordano inspire students and the entire region to continue making the Philadelphia area a welcoming, thriving place to live and work.
Susan G. Komen’s mission is to save lives and eradicate the threat of breast cancer for all people by meeting the most critical needs in the community, ensuring quality care for all and investing in breakthrough research. Susan G. Komen Philadelphia distributes grants to organizations that work with the medically underserved, including uninsured and underinsured individuals and those individuals who may not receive adequate care because of barriers such as language, cultural differences and fear. Giordano was recognized for supporting the needs of underserved women from 15 counties when The Philly POPS held a customized concert specifically for this very diverse audience bringing together education and cultural arts. In addition to entertainment, there were 25 doctors and 25 survivors on the stage who share moving personal stories. There will be another on March 3, 2018.
