CCPA celebrates ‘Distinguished Citizens’

The College of Community and Public Affairs handed out its first Distinguished Citizen awards during its Harvest Evening gala Sept. 17, 2022. The event celebrated CCPA and its vast contributions to the local community and beyond through the work of its students, faculty, staff and alumni.

Barbara Ellis ’81 and Eve DiMenna, both members of the Harvest Evening Committee, received the awards in appreciation of their commitment to CCPA. Both were recognized for their longstanding outreach to other members of the community to generate support for CCPA’s programs as well as the critical financial and creative assistance they lend to ensure the annual gala’s success.

This year’s gala will be held Friday, Sept. 22, at the SUNY Broome Culinary & Event Center in downtown Binghamton. Interested in attending?
