At the event, “Sam A. Lupo & Sons Incorporation” was recognized as the 2023 Corporate Citizen of the Year.

“It’s such a wonderful feeling,” said Lupo. “And I think the main reason why there are so many companies in Broome County that give and give and give and do not get the recognition but also deserve it.”

Other awards worth highlighting from the event went to Mary Robinson, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity New York State who received the 2023 Executive Leader of the Year Award and Johnson City Rotary Club Carousel Day received the 2023 Community Advocate of the Year Award.
