Congratulations to this year's Torian Award winner Congratulations to this year's Torian Award winner, @first_horizon. Robert Torian presented this award in honor of his father, longtime United Way of Acadiana supporter, John G. Torian. 

Each year, this esteemed award is presented to one company that exemplifies the true spirit of giving through its annual workplace campaign.  First Horizon’s tradition of giving back is well known and strongly appreciated in Acadiana. Their charitable contributions and commitment to the betterment of our community is an incredible example of when a company works together for the common good. This company truly understands what it means to live united!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 2022 A Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 2022 Annual Meeting! We loved seeing everyone’s faces in person. Our work would not be possible without the support from you, and everyone in our community.

Also, a big thank you to our keynote speaker, Luciano Ramos, who gave an educational and inspirational discussion about working together to build healthier communities. He said, “Does anyone know the number one reason why people would donate their time, talent, and treasures to an organization? Because someone asked them to. People want to do good. Often, they don’t know how to get there.” When you give your time, resources, or money to United Way of Acadiana, we continue to fight for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community.
