PHILADELPHIA - s4story -- "I am sincerely appreciative of WHYY's long-standing interest in my work and contributions to Philadelphia," Hayman said. "They've covered nearly every chapter of my professional and civic life — and I don't take that lightly."

Hayman noted that WHYY has featured him or his initiatives across numerous stories over the years, including:

• The Feed Philly Coalition's anti-hunger initiatives
• The introduction of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) into the School District of Philadelphia
• Food waste reduction and food-rescue programs
• Volunteerism and mutual-aid impact
• High-profile civic moments tied to the DNC and 2026 Semiquincentennial
