In the foundation’s fourth annual event, honorees included Greensboro Councilmember Hugh Holston, community leadership; Germaine Cousar, education and athletics; James Benton, youth advocacy; and Dr. Henry Smith, lifesaving achievements.
“Our aim is to redefine perceptions of men, particularly within the Black and Brown community,” said James Rosa Jr., co-founder of the Rosa Foundation. “We are determined to showcase the presence of admirable men, devoted fathers and exemplary leaders in our midst.”
