MIAMI, April 30 2008 - The International Kids Fund (IKF), along with United Way of Miami-Dade, honored Juan N. Cento last Wednesday in Miami.

IKF, a program dedicated to helping children throughout the world overcome serious illnesses, partnered with the United Way of Miami-Dade to create this special award.

“I am honored to accept this award on behalf of the 290,000 employees and contractors at FedEx, and proud to represent our corporation’s commitment and passion for social responsibility," said Cento. “Serving our communities has been a long-standing tradition at FedEx for the past 35 years, not only because it’s the right thing to do, but because it makes good business sense for our employees and customers."
