JOHN DALY ACCEPTANCE SPEECH 2021
TV Santa Barbara presents
805 Focus! with John Daly
“John Daly has proven to be one of the most outstanding leaders and contributing members to the Santa Barbara community. Since he and his family made Santa Barbara their home in 1991, his commitment to philanthropy has made a significant difference in the lives of many residents, especially youth.”
“He recognizes that students were missing soft skills to navigate their career paths and designed these programs to address those gaps.”
“I think that mentoring is one of the best things that anybody could do. It requires very little time and the rewards are just tremendous. They’re absolutely tremendous.”
