Investment banker and philanthropist John Studzinski received the Faith & Culture Award from the Catholic New East Welfare Association (CNEWA) at its annual Healing & Hope Gala Dinner.
Hosted at a private club in New York City on 5 December, the dinner saw Studzinski presented the award in recognition of his “commitment to promoting the innate dignity of every child of God”, CNEWA said.
“As a devout Catholic, my faith has a fundamental influence on my daily life, whether it’s professional, personal or relating to a charitable initiative,” Studzinski said on receiving the award. “It is truly an honour to accept this award in recognition of my work with survivors of trafficking and human slavery, with the homeless and supporting other marginalised people.”
