Community Service Recognition Banquet
About the Award
Every spring, the Fall River Chamber asks its membership and the community to nominate individuals and groups that have provided extraordinary volunteer services to associations, charitable organizations, community clubs, etc. The awards banquet is an opportunity to thank these "Unsung Hero's" who have improved our environment and transformed lives through their volunteer work.
About John S. Brayton, Jr.
A member of one of Fall River's pioneer families, John S. Brayton, Jr. was a leader of exemplary character and integrity.
He possessed extraordinary vision and determination, having much to do with our transformation from the old to the modern Fall River.
A person-banker versus a banker-person, he was far ahead of his time as he championed the strengths of Southeastern Massachusetts, helping lead the tourism development of the Fall River waterfront.
Conservationist, land-steward, outdoors man, hunter and fisherman, he was a leadership advocate of fair share... the right and privilege of all to be involved regardless of race, creed, color or financial circumstance.
