The presentation will be part of the foundation's fundraising gala, to be held on Friday, May 5, at the Sheraton Parsippany Hotel.

The award, established in 2010, honors an individual, corporation or organization that has supported CCM and contributed to improving the quality of life in Morris County. Last year, it was renamed the Edward J. Yaw Leadership Award in honor of CCM's second president.

This is an opportunity to acknowledge and recognize Investors for its commitment to our community, especially the many charities and non-profits that it serves, said Joseph Vitale, president of the CCM Foundation. Investors is a model of what a true community bank should be €“ a good corporate citizen with a tradition of giving back at the heart of everything it does.CCM logo
