## Resource

David Hoffmann, Chairman of Lee Enterprises, just won the prestigious Horatio Alger Award for overcoming adversity and dedicating his life to public service. His family’s philanthropy spans kids, the arts, and healthcare—with a special focus on Type 1 diabetes, inspired by their grandson’s diagnosis. They launched the Type 1 Timer Hockey Camp to empower young athletes and build community. His wife, Jerri, brought the Joffrey Ballet to Chicago, enriching the city’s cultural landscape. Together, they’ve supported over 350 organizations, donated millions, and mobilized thousands of volunteer hours. Hoffmann’s simple goal? To be remembered as a generous person who made a difference.
