"Cushman & Wakefield has been a strong supporter of the March of Dimes for many years, and Gil Medina has long been an industry leader and a supporter of our mission," said Carol Roberts, director of special events for the March of Dimes North Jersey Division. "Because of that tremendous support, this honor is very much deserved."

"I am extremely proud to receive this award," said Medina, who is responsible for overall business operations for Cushman & Wakefield's East Rutherford, Morristown and Edison offices. "And, I can not think of a better cause than the March of Dimes."
