Former US First Lady Melania Trump has been honored with the title of “Patriot of the Year” for her contributions to American values and humanitarian causes. The award was presented during a ceremony celebrating individuals who have shown exceptional service to the nation.
Melania expressed gratitude for the recognition, saying she has always believed in “love for country, compassion for people, and strength through unity.” She added that her mission has been to inspire kindness and dignity through her “Be Best” campaign.
The organizers praised Melania for her continued efforts in promoting child welfare, online safety, and civic pride. They highlighted her work in supporting families and veterans, calling her a symbol of grace and patriotism.
Supporters hailed the award as a well-deserved acknowledgment of her quiet yet impactful work, noting that she stayed true to her causes even after leaving the White House. Many social media users applauded her commitment to national values and moral leadership.
