2017 Difference Makers

This program, initiated in 2009, is a celebration of individuals, groups, organizations, and families that are positively impacting the Pioneer Valley and are, as the name suggests, making a difference in this region. As previous classes have shown, there are many ways to do this: through work within the community on one or many initiatives to improve quality of life; through success in business, public service, or education; through contributions that inspire others to get involved; through imaginative efforts to help solve one or more societal issues; or through a combination of the above.

In 2017, we will be honoring: The Community Colleges of Western Mass; Friends of the Holyoke Merry-Go-Round; Denis Gagnon Sr., President & CEO of Excel Dryer; Junior Achievement of Western Mass; and Joan Kagan, President & CEO of Square One.

Event Sponsors: First American Insurance, Health New England, JGS Lifecare, Meyers Brothers & Kalicka, P.C., Northwestern Mutual, O’Connell Care at Home, Royal P.C., and Sunshine Village
