(COLUMBUS, OH - June 16, 2008) - Michael C. Quilter, CLU, LTCP, CPA, with New York Life Insurance Company in London, was awarded The Ohio Society of CPAs 2008 Public Service Award June 12 at The Society’s Annual Meeting in Columbus.
This award recognizes a member who makes outstanding contributions to the community by freely and generously contributing time and knowledge while also enhancing the professional image of CPAs.
Quilter has a long history of serving his community through youth and civic organizations.
As a board member of the London, Ohio Chamber of Commerce, he spearheaded the highly successful London Community Pride Program, which encourages businesses to buy goods and services locally. He also served on the Enterprise Zone Review Board, helping the community attract new and expand existing manufacturing plants for job growth.
He was on the Board of Directors of the Madison County Senior Citizens Center and was instrumental in facilitating the construction of a new center.
Quilter serves on the board of the Madison County Hospital Foundation where he chairs the planned gifts committee. This group has raised more than $5 million to advance quality healthcare in the county.
Quilter is also a long time member of The London Chapter of Rotary International. As the current president of the board, he has raised funds to support local youth programs, scholarships, humanitarian efforts and highway adoption programs.
Other volunteer work includes serving on the Board of Trustees for the London City School Foundation, on the Business Advisory Council to the London City School Board and on the Board of Directors of Junior Achievement of Central Ohio.
Serving youth is one of Quilter’s greatest joys. For eight years, he was a volunteer basketball coach for middle school children and said, “I hope I had a positive influence on their lives. They certainly influenced mine and I have enjoyed serving my community in this way.”
Quilter is a London resident.
