Bobby Kotick Honored by PVA
Written by Call of Duty Endowment on September 1, 2010 – 1:59 pm -Recently, the Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA) held their 64th annual convention in Providence, Rhode Island. During the week-long event, PVA’s Board of Directors and members gathered to discuss their plans for the upcoming year, and the development of their programs to serve our proud veterans who are suffering from spinal cord injuries.
The last day of the conference was set aside to honor those men and women from the private and public sectors, who have helped PVA achieve their goals in the past year. One award recipient was CODE’s very own Bobby Kotick, President and CEO at Activision Blizzard. Kotick was awarded with PVA’s Patriot Award for Individual Giving, because of the $125,000 he donated from his personal resources, in addition to the $125,000 grant that CODE provided to support PVA’s Vocational Rehabilitation Program. This grant was awarded to PVA last November as CODE’s very first grant recipient, and the funding will go towards PVA’s new Vocational Rehab program which has been established at the VA Medical Center in Boston, MA.
Congratulations to Mr. Kotick and many thanks to PVA for their continuous support to help our nation’s veterans!
