The ANDRUS Gala 2016

Mayor Mike Spano, a lifelong Yonkers resident, husband, father of three, and former State Assembly
Member, has dedicated his life to standing up for Yonkers families.

 

Since taking office as Yonkers’ chief executive in 2012, Mayor Spano has lead Yonkers’ revitalization
with innovative new projects that are transforming Yonkers’ growing waterfront, attracting new
businesses, tech companies and the arts, and creating hundreds of new jobs across the city.

 

Mayor Spano is committed to securing a strong financial future for Yonkers by building upon its
greatest strengths – its location, its history, its pride and its people.

 

With Henry Dobell, what you see is not what you get. Though obviously a passionate adventurist, musician and lay scientist, hidden is his capacity for empathy and deep concern that the weakest
among us be treated equally. Henry’s life long struggle with mental illness has lead him to advocate
for how the “Flow State” can keep people healthy and positive. Henry attended the Orchard School
from 2003-8. ANDRUS taught him the life skills that have allowed him to thrive.
