The Minuteman of the Year Award is presented to the person or persons who exhibit the honored traits and qualities that best serve the needs of the country. State. and community. Bishop Abramowicz has played an integral role in a number of humanitarian programs throughout the community. most notably the food and medical supply drive for the citizens of Poland. He is also serving on a commission which is investigating the refugee problems in Southeast Asia and Africa. The earnest efforts and willingness of Bishop Abramowicz to take such an active role in humanitarian deeds is an inspiration to all who know him. I was extremely proud to award the Stanley Piekarz Minuteman of the Year Award to Bishop Abramowicz.
