2012 Immigrant Journey Awards
2012 Immigrant Journey Awards Luncheon
America is the great country it is today because it was founded by individuals who became Americans by choice. Their ideas, creativity, strengths and determination built a nation that continues to welcome and utilize the talents of those who are inspired by this country’s promise. In turn, their achievements have become a source of inspiration to others. Each year, Badmus Law Firm and sponsors will recognize and honor exceptional immigrant individuals who have chosen to make this country their home and who have demonstrated leadership in business, a chosen profession or in the civic arena at the Annual Immigrant Journey Awards Luncheon.
