About the 2022 Community Leadership Honoree
Micron
A pillar of the Gala celebration each year is the Community Leadership Award, presented annually for outstanding community service and dedication to improving the quality of life for all Northern Virginians. This year’s award will be presented to Micron, a world leader in innovative memory solutions with deep ties to our region through its base in Manassas, Virginia. Micron transforms the communities where its team members live and work through its philanthropy and people, with more than 60% of its employees engaged in efforts to support local needs, particularly helping underrepresented and underserved students find pathways to STEM careers. In recent years, Micron launched new partnerships and initiatives with a focus on creating opportunity for all throughout our region and beyond.Raise the Region Sponsors
