The Rotary Club of New Orleans is excited to host Chris Beary for an engaging discussion about the Lousiana Music & Heritage Experience (LMHE), an exciting new world-class museum currently under development in the River District. LMHE’s vision is to honor Louisiana’s role as the origin of American music, while creating and supporting an equitable, thriving music economy. As the museum’s founder and chairman, Chris is leading the way to make this visionary project a reality for our community.
Thank you to all who donated their time, talent and treasure to ensure this year's Backpack Giveaway was a success.

The total amount spent was $4721.08 which totals: $15.73 per unit (backpack and supplies).
Rotary Connects, our project to promote New Orleans non-profit organizations that do good work for our local community, is off and running! Thanks to many members of our Club, several nominations of non-profits were made and the Voting Subcommittee, after a thorough and exhaustive review of every name submitted, have selected three non-profits for consideration. The next step is that these three non-profit names will be submitted to the Board at its next meeting. Thereafter, the recommendation will come back to the Club for a vote. Stay tuned. We will keep you posted on our progress.
