Manditch of Empire National Bank honored by YMCA

The YMCA of Long Island has selected Empire National Bank's chairman and chief executive officer Douglas Manditch as honoree for the organization's 2014 golf outing. The annual event is scheduled for May 1st at the Huntington Crescent Club. "For more than 15 years I have been affiliated with the YMCA of Long Island. It has always been and continues to be a very rewarding relationship. The organization makes such a positive difference in the lives of thousands of Long Islanders. People from all walks of life and all ages both enjoy and benefit from its many programs and services. It's truly a privilege to be recognized by this organization that opens its doors and hearts to all our residents," said Manditch. "I've always subscribed to the idea that you make a living by what you get, but that you make a life by what you give. And Doug Manditch clearly believes this too because when he gives, he does so with his heart and soul; not just resources. As an active and committed board member of the YMCA for 5 years, Doug has demonstrated his compassion, visionary leadership and commitment to making Long Island a better place to live, work and play. He truly embodies the YMCA's core values of honesty, respect, caring and responsibility, and we are thrilled to honor him," remarked the YMCA of Long Island's president and chief executive officer Anne Brigis.
