"We, at the WCH and GOD Awards couldn't be happier to bestow the 2016 Medical Innovation and Leadership Award to Dr. Shaya, he truly deserves to be recognized for all his contributions to humanity," the Princess continued. He also received a Certificate of Achievment for the New York State Senate during the event.

Stephen Shaya, M.D. was honored at the 4th Global Officials of Dignity Awards (G.O.D. Awards) on August 19 and spoke at the 3rd WCH Humanitarian Summit on August 17, 2016 at the United Nations Headquarters, New York. Both flagship events are organized by We Care for Humanity and its philanthropic partners with Excellency’s, Dignitaries and other attendees from around the world. The event was hosted by Permanent Mission of The Republic of Benin to the UN. The event was captured live on MANATV.net.

At the We Care for Humanity Summit held at the UN, Dr Shaya passionately called on the attendees to action by quoting Muhammad Ali, “ “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.”
In accepting the Award, Stephen Shaya, M.D. quoted Nelson Mandela said, “I never lose. I only win or learn.” Then Dr. Shaya went on to further explain. “This is how my father and mother always believed in innovation and our company has never been afraid to take the lead on tackling some of the most daunting challenges. My father and mother five years ago decided to pursue virtual care. It wasn’t about the gifted gadgets or gizmos. Their vision was that every person on this planet had the God given right to receive health care. From this, Pietas was born which is a mission to provide access to care to all anywhere, anytime, anyplace.”
