BGCD Board Chair Lee Michael Kennedy Honored: Lee Michael Kennedy of Lee Kennedy Co Inc was awarded the Boston Business Journal’s CEO Social Leadership Award. The award is being presented in September at the Corporate Citizenship Awards at Fenway Park.

Lee has served as BGCD Board Chair since 2011 and first became a Board Member in 2001, making him a longtime supporter of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester.
