Methodist Health System Foundation's Robert S. Folsom Leadership Award

Methodist Health System Foundation is proud to announce James W. Keyes as the recipient of the 2024 Robert S. Folsom Leadership Award. Mr. Keyes is a business and civic leader, philanthropist, author, artist, musician, and commercial pilot. This prestigious award recognizes individuals whose demonstrated commitment to, and excellence in, community leadership emulates the achievements of former Dallas Mayor Robert S. Folsom. The award will be presented at a dinner on Friday, May 17, 2024, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at the Hilton Anatole Hotel's Chantilly Ballroom.

Mr. Keyes has designated that proceeds from this year's Folsom event benefit the transformation of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Methodist Dallas Medical Center.
