The Connecticut Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs and the Connecticut Area Council held its second leadership dinner Oct. 11 at Costa-Azzura Restaurant in Milford. 
The Connecticut Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs provides a mechanism for joint decision making and cooperative action among the 17 organizations in the state and seeks to promote and strengthen relationships with public and private agencies to increase support for clubs.

William M. Miller, Jr., was one of eight Boys & Girls Club Board members throughout the state of Connecticut who were recognized for leadership, dedication, and service to clubs. 

Miller learned service and philanthropy from his father - “Bing” Miller, who served on the Board for more than 50 years. Miller has been a valuable member of the board for 22 years.

His commitment goes far beyond showing up at meetings; he shares his experience and expertise. He’s led a Back-a-Kid annual appeal campaign for many years, despite the time commitment - as a business owner, when he’s giving his time to others, his own earnings are put on hold.

In addition to the Boys & Girls Club, Miller shares his talents with many other organizations. He has served seven additional community organizations through the years, including the Waterbury Symphony Orchestra, Valley United Way, Oxford Economic Development Corp., Derby Historical Society, Griffin Hospital, OHS Booster Club, and St. Thomas the Apostle Church. He still actively serves on five of these organizations.
Miller grew up in Shelton and graduated from the University of Richmond with a degree in economics. He is the owner of Miller Investment, an independent investment practice, which he started in 1996.
Miller resides in Oxford with his wife, Stephanie. They have three sons. Their oldest, Mason, serves in the Special Forces Division of the army and is 4th Engineer. Andrew lives in Boston and works for Stonehill College, and Alex graduated from Rollins College in Florida and works for a baseball development company.
