CEO Connection is proud to announce Stanley Middleman, CEO of Freedom Mortgage, as the 2019 Social Impact CEO of the Year Award recipient.

Each year, CEO Connection's Mid-Market Awards® recognize one mid-market CEO who has had the greatest impact in public service, social enterprise, and/or philanthropy.

Stanley Middleman is a strong and enormously influential leader at Freedom Mortgage. Stanley is also well known for his commitment to non-profit organizations within the communities Freedom Mortgage serves, as well as fostering a community spirit among its employees. Stanley's strong commitment to giving back is reflected in Freedom Mortgage's Team Freedom Cares which is an employment and corporate giving program. Team Freedom Cares is well known for helping military families and working to fight hunger through food drives and sponsoring the local summer meals program for children. Each year, Freedom Mortgage also sponsors the Cooper Hospital Foundation's gala and the American Cancer Society of Southern New Jersey's Hope Gala. At the ACS 2019 gala, Stanley was recognized as the "Man of the Year" for the Freedom Mortgage's contributions.

"I am honored to be recognized for this award," said Stanley Middleman. "While our mission at Freedom Mortgage is to foster homeownership, supporting our communities, customers and colleagues are woven into the fabric of our company's culture. An award like this is a validation of our good work and empowers further growth of our community spirit."

Stanely will be honored during the CEO Connection Mid-Market Awards Dinner, during the 7th Annual CEOC Mid-Market Convention held September 22-24, 2019 at the Wharton School in Philadelphia.
