The Boston Red Sox have long exemplified Boston, and its spirit of community.\u00a0 Never was this more evident than in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings.\u00a0 Our city rallied together immediately, and in such a strong manner that a nation took notice.\u00a0 While all organizations and individuals joined together to condemn this attack and help the victims, people also needed something positive to focus on, to move forward.\u00a0 That something was the eventual World Series Champion Boston Red Sox.<\/p>\n
From the minute David Ortiz famously stated \u201cThis is Our #%$!# City\u201d, the Red Sox organization embarked on a mission to help this city recover and grow stronger.\u00a0 The Red Sox have always been passionate about enhancing the lives of those in our communities, and now that community spirit was on full display.\u00a0 It is this amazing dedication to our city and its people that the The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) New England Region will honor Dr. Charles Steinberg and The Boston Red Sox with the Distinguished Community Service Award on February 11th<\/sup> 2014.<\/p>\n Regan Communications is providing public relations support for this well-deserved honor and event, which will be held at Fenway Park.\u00a0 Boston\u2019s top public relations firm is no stranger to this event or sense of community.\u00a0 Regan Communications founder George K. Regan was himself a recipient of the Distinguished Community Service Award, as ADL honored Mr. Regan for his contributions to the community during a huge event at the J.F.K Library in 2009.\u00a0 Regan Communications is proud to support the Boston Red Sox, the ADL, and our communities.<\/p>\n Dr. Steinberg is the driving force behind much of the Red Sox charitable good works.\u00a0 He noted that both the Red Sox and ADL are passionately committed to the community, and that the Red Sox recognize the privilege it has of trying to use the Red Sox\u2019 good name to enhance people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n The award is given annually to individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to social justice and community building in both their personal and professional lives. ADL is proud to honor Dr. Steinberg and the Boston Red Sox for their role in uniting the Boston community and helping the city to heal after this past year\u2019s Boston Marathon attack.\u00a0 Red Sox players took the initiative to comfort so many people, that it was inspiring to see the unity within the organization and in the community.<\/p>\n ADL Regional Director Robert Trestan noted that, \u201cBoston is lucky to have Dr. Charles Steinberg and the Red Sox as part of the city\u2019s fabric. In the wake of the devastating impact of the Marathon bombing they gave us hope, pride, and the unity we needed to heal.\u201d<\/p>\n The Distinguished Community Service Award will be presented to Dr. Steinberg and the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on the evening of February 11th<\/sup> 2014. Red Sox World Champions Dustin Pedroia and MVP David Ortiz will serve as Honorary Co-Chairs, as well as Susan Wornick and Bob Lobel as Masters of Ceremony. \u00a0\u00a0Tickets can be purchased at www.adl.org\/adlredsox<\/a>.\u00a0 It\u2019s a great opportunity to say thank you to the Red Sox for all it did for Boston in 2014.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Boston Red Sox have long exemplified Boston, and its spirit of community.\u00a0 Never was […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_crosspost_to_4":false,"_crosspost_to_5":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[72,34,62,61,43,33,87,75],"tags":[88],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32606"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32606"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32606\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32606"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32606"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/regancomm.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32606"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
