Bob Page and Dale Frederiksen, owners of Replacements, Ltd. and national and regional LGBT philanthropists, were honored by the Gay & Lesbian Leadership Institute’s second annual Lewis-Underwood Award on Thursday, according to the Raleigh News & Observer.

According to the article:

Company chairman and CEO Bob Page and senior vice president for product services Dale Frederiksen were honored for their work supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender organizations and causes.

The award comes with a $10,000 check for the winners to designate for a nonprofit group of their choice. Page and Frederiksen selected Equality NC, a Raleigh-based organization that works to educate the public about the effect of discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.

Congrats Bob and Dale! Thanks for all you do for our state, nation and the City of Greensboro!
