SUMMARY:Community Counts 2024
DESCRIPTION:Accurate data is essential to help our community set priorities\, track progress\, formulate policy\, and allocate resources. To help drive change in our area\, the Community Foundation has been tracking data and publishing Community Counts since 2008. Data for the Shreveport-Bossier Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) is collected and tracked in six categories – Population\, Economics\, Human Capital\, Health\, Social Environment\, and Physical Environment. For the Community Foundation\, this data guides all that we do. We encourage all to use Community Counts to start and accelerate community discussions\, as a roadmap for social capital investment\, or as a call to action for philanthropy and volunteerism. \nDr. Dave Norris\, Senior Vice President at Louisiana Tech University\, will present this year’s data on Wednesday\, September 25th at LSU Health Shreveport Center for Medical Education. The doors will open at 5:00 PM. See parking information below. \nReserve your seat here.\nPlease plan to park in Lot L\, located next to the Center for Medical Education. On Kings Highway coming from I-49\, turn left onto Samford Avenue by Shriners Hospital for Children. Continue straight\, then make a right turn onto Woodrow Street. Continue straight and Lot L will be on your right. Look for the green CFNLA event signs to guide you to the parking lot entrance. You can also refer to the campus map. Follow the dotted red line and enter the parking lot at the red arrow.

SUMMARY:Annual G. Scott Griffin Award Applications Deadline
DESCRIPTION:Community Foundation of North Louisiana will accept applications for the annual G. Scott Griffin Award starting July 1st\, 2024. The award\, which features a cash prize of $1\,000\, will be given to a local artist who has contributed to the community through his or her art while overcoming adversity. The deadline for entries is July 31st\, 2023\, at 5:00 PM. The application and guidelines can be found below. The winner will be announced publicly at an event at Artspace (date and details TBA). \nThe award is named in honor of G. Scott Griffin\, who was a multidisciplinary\, multimedia artist with accomplishments in musical composition\, instrumental performance\, photography\, and film. Because of these achievements\, it was often unrecognized that Griffin overcame many adversities in the execution of his art. From his childhood\, Griffin coped with a visual handicap\, congenital nystagmus\, which would have been the reason for most talented artists to cease performing. Rather than giving up his artistic dreams\, Griffin invited his audiences to join him on a journey of discovery and beauty that was possible through the lens of his camera and his varied canvases. His legendary music enchanted listeners because he played from the heart and not by sight. \nGriffin died of complications related to cancer on October 7\, 2007 at the age of 45. The Scott Griffin Fund was created at the Community Foundation to keep his memory alive and to honor those artists who approach their art and life with the same passion and persistence as Griffin. \nPast recipients include: Susan Duke\, Cathy Cobb\, Ian Quiet\, Larry Sanchez\, Aaron Cox\, Bertha Cooper Harris\, Angelique Feaster-Evans\, Poetic X\, Carlos Colón\, Buddy Flett\, Bobby Darrow\, Matthew Cipolla and Mary “ML” Dumars. \n2024 Scott Griffin Award Guidelines\n2024 Scott Griffin Award Application\nAll applications must be submitted by 5:00 PM on Wednesday\, July 31st\, 2024.
