On November 21, 2024, the Central Louisiana Community Foundation hosted a memorable evening at the Coughlin-Saunders Performing Arts Center to celebrate a monumental milestone—25 years of philanthropy and community impact.

The Celebration of Philanthropy event brought together donors, nonprofits, and community leaders to honor the heart and spirit of giving that defines Central Louisiana. Attendees had the opportunity to reflect on the incredible power of generosity and the extraordinary contributions made by so many to strengthen our region.

The evening was filled with moments of gratitude, inspiration, and connection, as we recognized the individuals and organizations that have partnered with us to make a lasting difference. It was a reminder of how much we can achieve when we come together to support causes that matter.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us in celebrating this special occasion and to those who have supported our mission over the years. Your generosity and dedication continue to make Central Louisiana a stronger, more vibrant community.

Here’s to 25 years of impact—and to many more to come!
