Message from the President

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to thank our Human Resource Management team for organizing yesterday’s wonderful Employee Benefits Fair. The health and wellness of our faculty and staff are critical components of the vitality of our institution. 

As for the health of our community, United Way of Southeast Louisiana brings people together to support communities where everyone can access a quality education, build economic mobility, and live a healthy life. Their work is powered by people and local institutions like the University of New Orleans that are committed to supporting the strength and resilience of our community. 

Joining United Way is a call to purposeful action, a call to build a better tomorrow for every person, everywhere. Together, United Way and the University of New Orleans can recognize and amplify our power to make a meaningful difference in Southeast Louisiana where we work and live. 

See how your support helped our community here.
