Lisa Y. Gordon and Marcelle Haddix

Transforming people’s lives through access to affordable housing, improving literacy in some of ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ’s most impoverished communities, using the art of step to give back, increasing public health awareness at an area high school and providing essential medical supplies to a hospital at the epicenter of the coronavirus—five unique endeavors that highlight the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ community’s commitment to make the world a better place.

This year’s Orange Circle Awards recipients are Lisa Y. Gordon G’90, president and chief executive officer of Atlanta Habitat for Humanity; Marcelle Haddix, chair of reading and language arts and a dean’s professor in the School of Education; and student organizations Black Reign Step Team, Food Busters and a Hand for Wuhan.

They will be honored during the Orange Circle Awards ceremony from 2-4 p.m. on Sept. 9 as part of ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ’s Coming Back Together celebration.
