I felt humbled and extremely grateful to receive the BC Achievement Community Award and Mitchell Award of Distinction. My mind keeps reminding me of the teachings of the Glorious Quran which advocates equity and justice emphasizing that only noble deeds may raise the status of one human over another and that an individual is great by deeds and not by birth. It is common knowledge that you get more of what you reward and celebrate.
