2025 Bert Hatten Community Impact Award (DUE NOV 7th 2025)

The Chamber recognizes that many public servants, non-profit leaders and engaged community members leave profound and lasting impacts on our community aligning with the mission of the Chamber that are not eligible for other awards given by the Chamber. This award seeks to recognize local community leaders that through the actions of their work and community service have demonstrated extraordinary leadership and a legacy of profound and lasting impact to our community in the areas of education and workforce development, promotion and development of the business community, and increasing the quality of life for all that live in Ouachita and surrounding parishes.

The executive board may select yearly a community award winner from membership nominations that deserves recognition for their service.

This community impact award may be given to no longer serving elected officials, current or past non-profit leaders and Chamber community partners that are currently or have significantly impacted our community through their role. The honoree may be a current member of the chamber but membership is not required.

Previous winners include Bert Hatten, Janet Durden, and Capt Jerome Casey.
