Description

SOLD OUT

Join us over lunch on Wednesday, October 21, from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. for a conversation on the role philanthropy can play in shaping stronger, more connected communities.

Featuring Missy Bienvenu and Anita Begnaud of Community Foundation of Acadiana, this discussion will explore how strategic investment can help move catalytic projects forward, strengthen community assets, and create lasting impact across Acadiana.

Inspired by recent conversations around community development and insights from One Acadiana’s Leadership Exchange to Chattanooga, the program will highlight the potential for meaningful, place-based investments to strengthen our region and how philanthropy can help unlock these opportunities.

This event is proudly presented by FMOL Health | Our Lady of Lourdes and supported by Kean Miller.

Thank you to our community sponsor, JD Bank.
