Southold Anti-Bias Task Force presents Helen Wright Prince award October 10th
The Southold Town's Anti-Bias Task Force is preparing for its eighth annual presentation of the Helen Wright Prince Award. We're hoping you can join us.
This year's event will occur Thursday, Oct. 10, from 6-7:30 p.m. in the community room at Peconic Landing in Greenport. It is free to the community, and no registration is required.
This year's honoree is Cathy Demeroto, Executive Director of CAST Center for Advocacy, Support and Transformation.
The award was created in honor of the late Helen Wright Prince, who died in 2013 at 101. Ms. Prince spent most of her life helping children and families in need and decades working at area migrant labor camps, including a notorious camp that operated on Cox Lane in Cutchogue.
The award is presented every October to community members who promote diversity, unity, and fairness. Previous honorees included Al Edwards, Pauline Smith, and current Southold Town Board member Brian Mealy.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
