On June 27, 2016, House Speaker Robert DeLeo, Senate President Stan Rosenberg, and Secretary Peyser joined hundreds of nonprofit and business leaders at the State House to celebrate the work of the nonprofit sector and raise awareness of causes throughout the state at MNN’s annual celebration of Nonprofit Awareness Day, presented by Citizens Bank. The highlight of the celebration, the Nonprofit Excellence Awards, were presented to seven nonprofit organizations and employees that exemplify the most innovative, creative and effective work being done throughout the Commonwealth.
