Professor wins recognition for philanthropy - The News Record: Campus

Professor wins recognition for philanthropy - The News Record: Campus: A University of Cincinnati Clermont College professor has broken the myth that one person cannot make a difference.

Future Without Poverty, an internationally run anti-poverty nonprofit, awarded Michael Preston, assistant professor, this year’s “Breaking the Myth of No Effect” Award.

Preston established a chapter of FWOP at UC Clermont in 2012 and received the award specifically for organizing a recent trip to the Yucatan in Mexico where faculty and students helped teach Spanish to indigenous people.
