Rockland Legislator Paul Honors Noah George for Professional Achievement & Community Contributions

The Rockland County Legislature recognized four outstanding residents for their professional successes and community contributions during this year’s Minority and Women Business Enterprise Awareness Celebration.




Rockland County Legislature Vice Chairwoman Aney Paul cited the many accomplishments of Noah George, Vivian London-Crooks, Jarrhett Oates and Arlene DePrizio during the celebration. She was joined by Legislator Toney L. Earl to present each honoree with a Distinguished Service Award, the Legislature’s highest honor.



“Each of this year’s honorees is an example of what it takes to create true business success: never-ending hard work, commitment to quality, a high standard of professionalism and sheer determination,” Legislator Paul said. “They are doing this while also being married and raising families - and they have never forgotten to give back to the larger community.”

Legislator Paul chairs the Special Committee on Minority and Women Business Enterprise, whose members also include Legislators Harriet Cornell, Toney L. Earl, Aron Wieder, and Laurie Santulli.


In 2017, the Legislature proclaimed Nov. 16 as Minority and Women Business Enterprise Awareness Day in Rockland County. Every November outstanding local business owners are honored in recognition of the challenges they have overcome and the successes they have achieved.
 

A graduate of Liberty University, where he earned a master’s in human services arts with a concentration in executive leadership, Noah George employs 20 local residents among his three businesses, which include Global Collision and Body Works in Congers.
 

Noah and his wife, Shincy, a nurse by profession, are parents of Jonah and Jacob, students at St. Margaret’s Catholic School in Pearl River, as well as Joann, who is not yet in school. Noah has been an active participant in the New City Rotary Club for several years and volunteers his time at Meals on Wheels in Nanuet and the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood, NJ, and engages in charity efforts whenever there is a need among the many civic and cultural organizations in his immediate circle
