Retired Army Major Wins EBV Alumni Event Pitch Competition
UConn Today – If you ask U.S. Army Major (Ret.) Henry H. Washington III ’21 EBV about the experiences that set him up for success as a youngster, he will credit three things:
- loving parents,
- a never-miss-church-on-Sunday ethic,
- participation in every sports team available, all which kept him busy, tired, and out of trouble and
- a “village’’ of people who cared about him.
Today he is the Founder and CEO of the Henry H. Washington 3 Foundation, which serves to better the lives of children, teens and young adults in metro Atlanta. The foundation offers a wide range of services, but is particularly focused on helping youth find a career path, stay out of trouble, and serve the community.
