Each Year, the Alexis de Tocqueville Society of United Way of Southeast Louisiana presents its highest award for exemplary leadership in community volunteerism and philanthropy. 

United Way of Southeast Louisiana is celebrating 100 years of driving positive change at the 2024 Tocqueville Gala, presented by Entergy. Join us as we recognize our donors, volunteers, advocates, and community partners who have helped us build an enduring legacy and whose support propels us toward our mission of eradicating poverty. Their dedication to United Way ensures that more families have stable homes, children receive quality education, and people can afford a better quality of life now and for generations to come.

The celebration will occur on the evening of Saturday, October 19, at The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans.
