Entergy volunteers honor the dream by addressing hunger across Louisiana
nAt Entergy, giving back to the community doesn't begin and end with January 16 but continues throughout the year. Dr. King once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?’" Our employees respond through action. Last month, Entergy volunteers across Louisiana collaborated with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana and Healthy Blue committed to sponsor 200,000 meals at food banks and other organizations addressing hunger in Louisiana. Over 600 volunteers from all three organizations helped surpassed the 200,000 meals goal and address hunger in Louisiana.

Remaining calm under pressure took on a new meaning for Entergy New Orleans lineworker Jereme Pierre when he stopped by a local sandwich shop in Marrero for a quick bite to eat. Jereme, a former lifeguard, had recently completed CPR training again at Entergy to refresh the life-saving skill, when he heard an older adult nearby start coughing. The two made eye contact, but the group of friends around the coughing man indicated that this might be a regular occurrence.

Helping on a moment’s notice
The sight of emergency services arriving on the scene of an accident on July 10 brought great relief to bystanders, as Aaron Morehead finished tying off the end of a 100-foot hand line to his service truck. On other end of the rope, which would normally be used while the Entergy New Orleans lineman is working high in the air on a utility pole, was instead providing a lifeline for a truck driver whose vehicle had crashed into Lake Pontchartrain.
