Michael E. Smith Recognized by Community of Hope with Amber’s Angel Award

Frantz Ward is proud to share that partner Michael E. Smith was recently presented with the inaugural “Amber’s Angel” award by the Community of Hope during its annual “Amber’s Night of Hope” fundraiser. Mike was recognized for this award for his unwavering dedication and meaningful impact on the organization.

The event, named in honor of Community of Hope’s founder, Amber Donovan, brought together supporters for an evening of celebration. Guests enjoyed dinner, a concert, raffles, and an auction raising more than $50,000 for their mission of supporting young adults who have been impacted by foster care.

Mike has been involved with the Community of Hope since its inception 10 years ago. As a committed board member, he has provided invaluable support, guidance, and counsel to the organization over the years. 

The Community of Hope is a nonprofit organization that focuses on building relationships, nurturing hope, and restoring dignity for youth in Ohio. By creating intentional, family-like relationships through a combination of supportive programs and engaging clubs, the organization works to combat the effects of poverty and marginalization on young people impacted by foster care.
