2016 A Celebration of Heroes, Heart and Hope
Wednesday, June 8, 2016
Waldorf=Astoria, New York City

Honoring Scott L. Stackman

Managing Director, UBS Private Wealth Management

Scott’s vision, leadership and passion created the Challenged Athletes Foundation’s  A Celebration of Heroes, Heart & Hope Gala in 2007.  His journey with CAF began after the passing of his father Howard Stackman in 2004. From an early age, Scott’s parents taught him the importance and need of giving back. These values drove Scott to bring this iconic event to New York City, which over the last nine years has raised over $11.2 million dollars to help challenged athletes succeed in the game of life. His mother Gail has proudly been a pillar of support as together with CAF, they have built a family, a community and a new tradition of philanthropy that can be passed from one generation to the next.

This year Scott has agreed to serve as Honoree to celebrate the 10th anniversary gala on June 8, 2016. At the event, we will salute inspirational challenged athletes and re-live their powerful moments of triumph, while recognizing individuals who have truly made this “A Decade of Difference.”

 Scott is a Managing Director at UBS Private Wealth Management, where he joined in 2008. Scott offers more than 20 years of experience in the financial services industry. As a Managing Director, he has found his niche as a dedicated Private Wealth Advisor and true partner and problem solver for his clients.  Scott is a member of the UBS Pinnacle Council, an elite group of Private Wealth Advisors recognized for their expertise, service and successful client relationships. He earned his B.A. from the University of Maryland.

 Scott is an accomplished three-time IRONMAN triathlete and has successfully competed twice in the World Championship IRONMAN in Kona, Hawaii.
