The Ashforth Company was honored with the Community Partnership Award from Literacy Volunteers – Stamford/Greenwich, Inc. at its annual recognition event.

Richard Battista, executive vice president, finance and administration accepted the award on behalf of the company. The award is given to individuals and/or corporations who have provided on-going and extraordinary dedication to Literacy Volunteers through board participation, volunteering and philanthropy.

“As Literacy Volunteers’ community partner for over 15 years, we truly appreciate this recognition but more importantly we believe in Literacy Volunteers’ education mission and are grateful for the amazing work accomplished by this vital community organization. We look forward to reaching new heights helping others, together,” said Battista.
