Today, Richland Parish students participated in Dollars & $ense! 💵

They made real-life budgeting choices — seeing firsthand how quickly expenses add up.

Thank you to Ben Westerburg of Regions Bank & our amazing volunteers for investing in our youth! 💙 #UnitedIsTheWay

In Northeast Louisiana, 56% of households are ALICE—working families without a financial safety net. When hardship hits, stability matters. The Family Relief Effort helps cover urgent needs. Give $10, $20, $50, or any amount 💙

When child care is unreliable, parents miss work or even leave jobs. The workforce depends on strong early childhood systems. 💼 #LAEarlyEdMonth #InvestInECE
