The PPL Live United Award is presented annually to an organization or company that demonstrates exceptional engagement and dedication to the community. It recognizes companies that uphold United Way’s best practices, exhibit accountability in both internal and external community efforts, and display exemplary leadership in diversity, financial stewardship, measurable results, and performance excellence.
“We are thrilled to present HNL Lab Medicine with United Way’s highest honor,” said Shaun Marakovits, Director of Workplace Engagement, United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley. “Their generous contributions and unwavering commitment to community service have truly made a difference in the lives of countless individuals in our region.”
