A set of unique Bennett Awards recognition awards were selected for a recent tribute gala for African American men in the Greater Cincinnati area. This awards tribute – Men of Honor, A Salute to African American Men – was presented by The Abercrumbie Group, along with corporate partners Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing, Cincinnati Bell, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati State Technical & Community College, and d.e. Foxx & Associates.

These achievement awards provided a unique opportunity for the community to honor the accomplishments of African American men in Greater Cincinnati who have succeeded against all odds and achieved special greatness. The men were celebrated for the body of their professional work and their personal commitment to the Greater Cincinnati community. Five recognition awards were presented to honorees in the award categories of Medicine, Civil Rights, Civic Service, Education, and Business.

The unique Bennett recognition awards design Honor was used for these distinguished achievement awards. These recognition trophies were cast in pewter, and featured a gold-plated finish. They were mounted on black marble bases that featured customized engravings for each of the trophy recipients.

In addition to the achievement trophies, each honoree was given a grant to designate to an organization of his choice. These grants will be given through the Men of Honor Foundation, which was recently created to formalize this effort to support and advance community organizations that serve young African American males.
