It was an emotional night in Ranch Viejo, where the San Benito-based South Texas Adult Resource and Training (START) Center acknowledged its three recipients for the 2011 Freddy Fender Humanitarian Awards on Thursday.
The awards were given to those who have contributed in various ways to community service and humanitarianism – a legacy in which San Benito’s own Freddy Fender, a three-time Grammy award winner, left behind following his passing.
The three recipients for this prestigious award included KGBT Action 4 News, late educator Clara Bow Williams Zepeda, and SpawGlass.
