Throughout the years, Davidson has informed consumers about scams and dangerous products, and she has hosted numerous successful ‘Shredder’ events throughout Greater Philadelphia, Lehigh Valley, South Jersey and Delaware. These events made it possible for several thousand consumers to safely dispose of their personal and confidential documents to keep them safe from identity thieves.

The Philadelphia Business Journal and the National Association of Women Business Owners honored her with “The Woman of Distinction” award in 2004, Women in Communications named her the 1995 “Communicator of the Year,” and in 1992, her dedication to community service to women and children of Vera House, a battered women's shelter, earned her the Sister Mary Vera Award.

Davidson currently serves on the March of Dimes Board of Directors and has served as the Honorary Chair of the March of Dimes’ WalkAmerica for several years. In the past, she has served on the Board of Directors for CORA, an organization serving families in Northeast Philadelphia, and on an advisory board for Laurel House, a domestic violence shelter in Norristown.

In 2004, Davidson was honored by Laurel House for her work and continued support of the non-profit organization. Davidson and her friends spent hours training and fundraising, and then completing “The 3-Day,” 60-mile breast cancer walk held in Philadelphia in October of ’07.
