"I am deeply honored to receive the Order of Charity Award with my family. This award is a testament to our tireless work dedicated to advancing healthcare access and improving the lives of individuals in need," Mary Shaya remarked. "My family has always been my rock, and I am grateful for the 51 years I had with my beloved husband, Dr. Fawzi Shaya.
