Banner awards night for businessman Fred Moses

Plano Businessman Fred Moses, President/CEO of Telecom Electric Supply LLC, is the recipient of two distinguished awards.

On Saturday, March 16, 2024, he received the Inspired to Unite: Community Leader Award at the Meals on Wheels Collin County Illuminating Hope Gala. Moses received this stellar honor for his dedication to philanthropy and service, along with his financial commitment to giving back to his community.

“This individual is amazing,” said Zella Tyson, CEO/Executive Director of Meal on Wheels Collin County. “His contributions showcase the power of unity and leadership in building inclusive communities.”

The award is a unique, meaningful recognition of the men and women in our district who give of their time and talent to make their community a better place.
Fallon called Moses a personal mentor, one who is very deserving of the honor that recognizes high achievement or something heroic.

“It’s like a lifetime achievement award for being a great American,” Fallon said. “Fred absolutely fits the bill. This award is rarer than a Super Bowl ring.
“Of the million plus people who live in Collin County, Fred Moses is the first recipient of this award.”

Moses has served Collin County in several capacities, including being an elected official.
He consistently demonstrates his dedication to faith, family, education, and financial wellness through involvement as Associate Minister and Sunday School Teacher at Shiloh Baptist Church of Plano, a Trustee of the University of Bridgeport, and Treasurer of the Plano Childcare Learning Academy.

He is an active leader in the political arena and has established Educational Endowments with his late wife, Mazzie Moses, at esteemed institutions leaving a legacy of empowerment. Fred’s multifaceted contributions highlight the power of unity and leadership in building inclusive communities.
