| Vlade Divac, Basketball Superstar and Tireless Philanthropist Awarded Ellis Island Medal of Honor |
| Vlade Divac, the NBA superstar whose achievements off the court are as impressive as those he had on the court, was awarded the Ellis Island Medal of Honor on May 13, 2006. The National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations awards the medal to outstanding American citizens who live a life dedicated to community service, promoting American values, and building bridges between ethnic communities living within the United States and abroad. According to NECO, “The Ellis Island Medals of Honor pay tribute to the ancestry groups that comprise America’s unique cultural mosaic.”
