More than 100 years ago, French aristocrat Alexis de Tocqueville traveled extensively throughout the United States and marveled at the young nation’s generous spirit. His travels were the basis of a book, Democracy in America, in which he wrote, “When an American asks for the cooperation of his fellow citizens, it is seldom refused; and I have seen it afforded spontaneously and with great good will.”
At the Summit League reception, a Tocqueville Award is presented to recognize long term philanthropy benefiting our community. The 2017 Tocqueville honoree was Nancy Frawley.
