The Legacy Award recognizes the contributions of individuals who epitomize the council\u2019s goals of philanthropy, leadership and mentorship. Gov. Winter is known for championing education in the state and racial reconciliation across the nation. Elise Winter has been heavily involved in Habitat for Humanity for more than 25 years. The programs were presented by C Spire Wireless, and other sponsors were Jones, Walker, Waechter, Poitevent, Carr\u00e8re &amp; Den\u00e8gre LLP; FedEx Corp.; Entergy; and Regions. The award is an initiative of the 12-year-old OMWC, a group that attracts scholarship funds, pairs recipients with mentors and provides leadership training. Male and female scholarship recipients pledge to \u201cgive back\u201d through community service. OMWC has built an endowment of almost $8.6 million and supports 61 scholarships.
