In recognition of commitment and dedication to overcoming obstacles
LINCOLN, R.I., Oct. 27, 2014 – Robert A. DiMuccio, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Amica Insurance, was honored with the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Award at the NAACP Providence Branch Freedom Fund Dinner, held on Friday night at the Providence Marriott.
The award is in recognition of commitment and dedication to overcoming obstacles that face the community, particularly those affecting African-Americans and other minorities. DiMuccio accepted the award on behalf of all Amica employees.
“This award is named after an amazing human being, someone who faced many obstacles in his life. But it is his powerful words and positive actions that we remember, that we can never forget,” DiMuccio said. “At Amica, we try hard to put our mission and our beliefs into action for our customers and, especially, for our employees. For more than 100 years, Amica has been a place where men and women can build solid careers and be treated with respect.”
The NAACP is the oldest and largest civil rights organization in America. The Providence Branch has been in place for more than a century.
