Congratulations to Brian! We are so grateful for all he does to help create opportunities for kids in this community!

Our next Five Who Share honoree to recognize is Brian Pellon. Brian is the Vice President of R&D and Woodlands Operations at Huntsman Corporation. In addition to years of dedicated support to Education for Tomorrow Alliance (EfTA), Brian helps to oversee the company's internal support of nonprofits that need teams of volunteers support, like the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and Junior Achievement. He helps cultivate a corporate culture of engagement. Brian and his wife Peggy also spent more than a decade volunteering weekly at MD Anderson in Houston before it had a hub in The Woodlands in gratitude for the successful cancer treatment of their older child. He has a heart for community, and talents that truly help his peers think more strategically about ways to engage.

Join us in honoring Pellon and other honorees at the Five Who Share Awards Breakfast on Friday, February 25th at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott. Tickets and sponsorships: bit.ly/FiveWhoShare2022
