STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
I am pleased to announce that Benjamin Leon Jr. will serve as the next United States Ambassador to Spain.
Benjamin is a highly successful entrepreneur, equestrian, and philanthropist. He came to the U.S. from Communist Cuba at 16-years-old, with only Five Dollars in his pocket, and proceeded to build his company, Leon Medical Centers, into an incredible business. He has helped support many worthy causes, like La Liga Contra el Cancer, and important Medical Research at Johns Hopkins and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
Benjamin has also invested in training our future doctors and nurses by supporting Miami-Dade College's Benjamin Leon Jr. School of Nursing, and the Benjamin Leon Center for Geriatric Research and Education at Florida International University's Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine.
Congratulations Benjamin!
