What
Each year, the Guardian of the Human Spirit Luncheon raises essential funds supporting Holocaust and Human Rights education for students, teachers, members and the public. Thank you for your support of Holocaust Museum Houston!
The 2022 Guardian of the Human Spirit Award Luncheon will honor Y. Ping Sun and David W. Leebron, active supporters of the Museum for more than a decade. Ping and David came to Houston in 2004 when David was named the seventh president of Rice University. During his 18-year tenure, Rice University saw unprecedented growth of the campus, student-body enrollment and diversity and community engagement well “beyond the hedges.” Far exceeding her official capacity as university representative, Ping served on numerous boards and held key community positions while bringing international visibility to Rice. As prominent community leaders and global ambassadors for Houston, this dynamic couple’s vast contributions transformed the purpose of Rice University and what it means to be a Houstonian.
Special guest speaker is Juju Chang, Emmy Award-winning co-anchor of ABC News Nightline and a regular contributor to Good Morning America and 20/20. One of the most prominent Asian Americans in broadcast news, Chang made U.S. broadcast history co-anchoring the 2021 ABC News Live special, Stop The Hate: The Rise in Violence Against Asian Americans.
