20 Under 40 Awards: Inspire Community - Lead, Act, Give
Ralph Parshall, general manager of Mercedes-Benz of Eugene, first conceived of the 20 under 40 Awards in 2008. Winners show excellence in their careers, put a priority on community service and want to make their community the best it can be. We’re energized by this year’s class of winners.
“I find joy in seeing the impact past winners make on our community. Every year I’m inspired when I read through the nominations. It’s always a very difficult decision to pick just 20 people to recognize.”
—Ralph Parshall, General Manager
