CGSC Foundation Trustee Benny Lee plays his clarinet at one of many receptions he has hosted for the Foundation since joining the board in 2015. Lee, the owner of the DuraComm corporation in Kansas City, is an entrepreneur and innovator of diverse groups of companies. He is noted for his entrepreneurial success, community leadership, and philanthropy, and was recognized as “Kansas City Philanthropist of the Year” in 2014. Recently the CGSC Foundation recognized Lee’s efforts by naming him their “Person of the Month.”

“Mr. Lee has been a faithful servant of the Foundation in his role as a trustee,” said Foundation President/CEO Rod Cox. “Since 2015, he has stepped up to support our mission not only with his time and talent, but financially as well. He and his company were top sponsors of our Celebration of International Friendship program every year. More recently, he supported our major donor reception in December 2019, and helped make that event a big success.”
