CCI’s Beth Stein 2004 Sunshine Peace Award Recipient

Crisis Connection, Inc. is honored to announce that Executive Director Beth Stein is among the national recipients of the 2004 Sunshine Peace Award. Stein will be honored and presented with a check for $10,000.00 at a gala reception in Wilmington, NC over the August 6-7, 2004 weekend.

According to Sunshine Lady Foundation founder and President, Doris Buffet Bryant (sister of investment king Warren Buffet), "The Sunshine Peace Award was established to honor the vital role that workers in the domestic violence field play within local communities. Seldom do we acknowledge the enormous influence grassroots organizations have in developing resources and in facilitating the social change necessary to end violence against women and children." Buffet continued, "Each day hundreds of individuals work countless hours to bring hope, healing and safety to survivors of abuse. It is the intent of this award to recognize the courage and strength of these individuals and through that recognition, to encourage their ongoing efforts."
