Young leaders participate in a 6-month program, where they pool funds, collaborate on teams and allocate grants impacting issues they care about.  Since launching a small pilot class of 18 participants in 2009, the group has been expanding at a rapid pace.  The 35 participants in this year's class represent a broad mix of Louisiana natives and newcomers to the city. The third class of the EPNO will award $35,000 in grants to eight local nonprofits working in Education, Arts & Culture, Healthcare and Housing during the ceremony. Refreshments will be provided.

Have you heard about the many health benefits of singing? With proper breathing, which gets more oxygen into the blood, the releasing of endorphins can have a similar effect as aerobic exercise. Studies have shown that singing relieves tension and lowers levels of stress, creating a feeling of relaxation. It promotes social interaction, and more. When you concentrate on singing, or on learning a new song, your brain power kicks in, memory is strengthened, and you really don't have time to "worry." So tune up your voice, call a few friends to join you, and come out and sing. No singing experience needed. For more information, call (504) 569-9070.
