Dear Nabil and Julia,
Warm congratulations for the latest honor that “Lebanon Times Magazine” has received on February 10, 2020, from the “Houston Award Program” organization. This independent and respectable organization gives yearly awards to companies that are judged to have achieved exceptional success in their missions and local communities, and by doing so, have positively impacted various aspects of life in the Houston area. The choice of “Lebanon Times Magazine” for the 2020 Award in the Magazine Publisher category is a testament to the exceptional quality and value of the “Magazine” to the Houston Community.
Such an award was earned only because of your hard work, relentless efforts at ensuring quality, strong foundation in values, truthfulness in reporting, fair and thorough representation, deep insight and understanding, long-term vision, and creative ideas, that are merged and intertwined with friendliness, openness, honesty, sincerity, and humbleness. “Lebanon Times Magazine”, you have not gone unnoticed, as this exceptional and honorable recognition that we are celebrating today, is a living proof that you have been on the right tract, and you rose to the very top of the scale when your quality was measured by an independent, reputable, and fair organization such as the “Houston Award Program”.
Even more impressive is the fact that “Lebanon Times Magazine” has achieved such a recognition while it has not yet completed its first decade of operation. It is impressive because the Magazine was founded by Lebanese Americans who had to learn their way in the new land, America. It is impressive, because such recognition is not bought by money, but earned by sweat and honest work. It is impressive because it a living proof that the “American Dream” is still alive, and that America is still a loving and fair nation like no other.
Nabil and Julia, once again, I find myself, whole heartedly, congratulating you on your success, and celebrating with you another honorable recognition. While this current recognition has not been your first award, I am also certain that it will not be your last. I wish you continued success in your journey, and I take this opportunity to renew my promise to provide you my full support.
