The event was chaired by Katy Forseth, associate general counsel for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona,and learning and Christine Sopa, performing consultant with Nationwide Insurance.
La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries of Arizona and Nancy Lewis, a longtime champion for families of the Ronald McDonald House and former board member, received the Heart of the House Awards.
