The Stanley A. Davis Leadership Award is presented annually to a UMDF leader who exemplifies dedication to the UMDF. The award was created to honor the work and dedication to the organization shown by the late UMDF Board Chairman, Stanley A. Davis. We are proud to recognize Howard and Ann Korsen of Mount Laurel, NJ as the 2021 Stanley A. Davis Leadership Award recipients. Howard and Anne have been active volunteers with the UMDF since participating in the first Mitochondrial Medicine Symposium. The couple are the parents of Dana and Mara; Mara battles mitochondrial disease. Howard has been incredibly helpful to the UMDF by advocating for issues impacting patient families on Capitol Hill. Ann has been instrumental in organizing and forming a team for the Del Val Energy for Life Walk. Ann also provides a lot of ‘behind the scenes’ support for the UMDF’s annual symposium and the ‘Evening of Energy’.
