2016 Digicel Men of Honour

Digicel Foundation CEO Beatrice Mahuru is reminding the public to identify these men and bring their stories to the fore by nominating them for the Digicel Men of Honour Award.

Her reminder comes following the announcement of inaugural Men of Honour award winner Jimmy Drekore, founder of Simbu Children Foundation, winning the 2016 World of Children Health Award.

“Key thing to say here is: It’s not an achievements based award, it’s a character based award, so if we can nominate those fine gentlemen out there and bring their stories to the fore,” she said.

The Foundation’s CEO, Beatrice Mahuru, has been invited to present at the Digicel Group’s Marketing Summit in St. Lucia next week.

The Marketing Summit will take place in the Caribbean Island nation of St. Lucia, where marketing heads of Digicel’s 32 markets are expected to attend.

This announcement was done by Digicel Foundation’s board chairman, Douveri Henao, on Tuesday.

He was proud to announce that the Men of Honour campaign is now going international.

This was what the 2015-2016 Men of Honour awards keynote speaker, Lieutenant General David Morrison, said during the event on April 15.

“I really applaud the initiative of Digicel and the sponsors in finding men of honour in Papua New Guinea,” the 2016 Australian of the Year stated.

There were five community categories for this year with three finalists each.
