American Global is pleased to announce that David Marino, Group President, was named the 2023 Honoree of the Maurer Foundation’s Pink Diamond Gala to be held October 13th at the Garden City Hotel.
For nearly 30 years, The Maurer Foundation, established by Dr. Virginia E. Maurer, has been dedicated to saving lives through breast health education, focusing on breast cancer prevention, risk reduction and healthy lifestyle choices. Their mission is one that hits close to home for Marino, whose wife, Karen, is herself, a breast cancer survivor.
David is a lifelong Long Island resident and honored to have the opportunity to lend his voice and support for the Foundation’s lifesaving work. As the father of three — Alexander, Kristina and Matthew — and the Chief Operating Officer of a closely held Long Island-based brokerage with global reach, David is acutely aware of how cancer can impact any family, be it at work or at home. David said “We have an amazing organization and talented colleagues we work with daily. I have seen first-hand how health impacts both our personal and professional lives. The good work that the Maurer Foundation does to promote breast health awareness is so critical to our community, I am grateful for the recognition as their 2023 Honoree”.
Susan Samaroo, Executive Director of The Maurer Foundation added, "We are excited to be celebrating David at this year’s gala. His commitment to our mission and giving back to our community exemplify what we look for in an honoree."
Personally and professionally, David has always stressed the importance of making good choices, with education and philanthropy topping his list of ‘best decisions.’ In this context, where having the right funding, the right knowledge and the right decisions can dramatically affect the health of you or your loved ones, David is certain to be an ideal ambassador.
It’s particularly fitting that David’s firm specializes in construction risk management, which focuses on reducing risk for their contractor, owner and developer clients. David will now be proud to broaden his resumé to include risk reduction “for all.”
