United Way honors 'servant-leader' |
Martha Scott Smith’s passion for her community is evident in her life’s investments.Somewhere in between her work at AT&T, she has found time to serve as the Columbia Urban League Guild president, on the S.C. State University Board of Trustees and as the vice chair of the Midlands Authority for Conventions, Sports and Tourism.And that’s just for starters.“We are our brothers’ keepers, and if we don’t (care for them), then shame on us,” Smith said.The AT&T director of public affairs has been named the United Way of the Midlands Humanitarian of the Year for 2009. She becomes the first African-American woman selected for the award since it was established in 1984.
