When Hurricane Katrina’s wind and floodwaters subsided, it became clear that generations of leaders and supporters of the Greater New Orleans Foundation had now and for future generations put the organization in a unique position. Now, it would be called upon to play both traditional and completely unexpected new roles in the recovery. Thanks to that history of support, to more than $25 million in new gifts and this is where we belong we are pledges from organizations and individuals, and to the way political, business and nonprofit leaders turned to the Foundation for leadership, the Greater New Orleans Foundation is poised to lead in the years ahead. home to stay in New Orleans We believe that creating a dynamic future for the region depends on three key areas of focus: a skilled workforce; safe, affordable neighborhoods; and great pub- lic schools. Since Katrina, the Foundation’s Board and staff have embraced the role of devoting their efforts to achieving and measuring success in those areas.

Rabalais, LUMCON’s executive director, received two prestigious environmental research awards, the the National Water Research Institute's (NWRI) Athalie Richardson Irvine Clarke Prize and the Ruth Patrick Award from the Ameri- can Society for Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO). In July, Rabalais became the fifteenth laureate of the NWRI’s Clarke Prize, one of the most prestigious awards in the world as determined by the International Congress of Distinguished Awards. Rabalais travelled to Huntington Beach, CA to accept the Clarke Prize for her 25 years of research on human-induced changes in water quality, particularly the long-term environmen- tal impacts of excess nutrients on marine ecosystems. The NWRI established the Clarke Prize in 1993 in honor of the late Athalie Richardson Irvine Clarke and her vision to recognize the vital importance of water and promote better water science and technology. In 1991, Clarke co-founded NWRI along with her daughter Joan Irvine Smith, who presented the award to Dr. Rabalais. Clarke said that she believed that “Nothing is more im- portant than the careful stewardship and development of our water resources.” The Huntington Beach Hilton was the setting for the ceremony where LUMCON Executive Director Nancy Rabalais received her Each year NWRI holds a formal ceremony in which Smith pres- Clarke Prize.
