LAS VEGAS, July 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Las Vegas
Sands (NYSE: LVS) today announced the recipients of the Mr. Sheldon
G. And Dr. Miriam Adelson Citizenship Awards, presented by Sands
Cares. The award recognizes Team Members across all the company's
business regions who have demonstrated a dedication to giving back
to local communities and important causes.
The process began with a peer-driven nomination period, where
Sands Team Members selected and nominated those among them who most
embody the Adelson family's long-term commitment to philanthropy
and legacy of giving. Sands Cares representatives then worked with
their respective leadership teams to select three Team Members from
each region – Las Vegas,
Macao and Singapore – who demonstrated a passion for
supporting Sands Cares initiatives and donating their time to
community causes they found meaningful and impactful.
This year's Adelson Citizenship Award honorees and "Sands Cares
Heroes" are:
- Bobby Aw, Senior Market

Security Officer, Macao

"The ultimate purpose of Sands Cares, our global corporate
giving program, is to build on our company's legacy of making an
impact in our communities," said Ron
Reese, senior vice president of global communications and
corporate affairs at Sands. "The Team Members selected as this
year's Sands Cares Heroes embody that legacy. Their dedication to
giving back to their local communities and to donating their time
to important causes around the world is reason for
celebration."
Adelson Citizenship Award winners were notified of their
selection in early July, and were honored by their local leadership
teams. In the coming weeks, each winner will be individually
