The Mount Olive Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night named Fenichel as the 2012 Humanitarian Award winner.

The award honors Anthony “Tom” Klecka, a local businessman and member of the Mount Olive Economic Development Committee who was active in the chamber. The chamber said Fenichel was selected for the award because of his years of service with the Flanders Fire Company #1 and Rescue Squad and his participation with the township Economic Development Committee.

In addition, the chamber took note of Fenichel’s activities with the Blood Center of New Jersey Board of Trustees, as well as his work with the Chester Area Professional Club and the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA).

As part of the Chamber award, Fenichel was cited by State Sen. Steven V. Oroho and Assembly Members Alison Littell McHose and Gary R. Chiusano. The certificate extended “commendations and praise by the citizenry of the 24th Legislative District.”
