HONORING DAVID WORONOFF AS MOORE COUNTY MAN OF THE YEAR
______
HON. RICHARD HUDSON
of north carolina
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, October 25, 2022
Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. David Woronoff as the recipient of the Moore County Man of the Year Award.
The Man of the Year Award is a prestigious honor presented annually by the Moore County Community Foundation to individuals that have impacted Moore County through charitable works and community service. As president and publisher of The Pilot since 1996, Mr. Woronoff has expanded and transformed the newspaper from a community publication into a statewide media company with multiple regional publications. The Pilot has earned many accolades and honors under his direction, including multiple distinctions as the nation's best community newspaper and the N.C. Press Association's top general excellence award in a division of the largest community newspapers. He currently serves on the board of directors for UNC's School of Media and Journalism and the Southern Newspaper Publishers Association. Perhaps most impressively, he was named the president of the North Carolina Press Association in 2010 and inducted into the North Carolina Journalism Hall of Fame in 2019.
In addition to this important work, Mr. Woronoff also worked as a reporter for Business North Carolina magazine before eventually becoming its director of business development. He currently serves on the board of directors for numerous associations and foundations across North Carolina, including the UNC Press Foundation and the Sandhills Community College Foundation. His previous leadership roles with the Moore County Chamber of Commerce, the North Carolina Chamber of Commerce, FirstHealth of the Carolinas, and The Moore County United Way are further examples of his work as an active leader in our community. In recognition of his successful and accomplished track record, he was awarded both the United Way of Moore County's Cornerstone Award in 2008 and the Kiwanis Club of the Sandhills' Builders Cup Award in 2015.
Mr. Woronoff has made an immeasurable impact on our community and is deserving of the Moore County Man of the Year Award. I would like to offer my sincerest appreciation and wish him success as he continues to serve our community.
Madam Speaker, please join me today in honoring Mr. David Woronoff for his service to our community and being named the Moore County Man of the Year.
