We are privileged to announce that Entergy Corporation’s Marcus V. Brown – philanthropist, public servant, and volunteer – is the 2021 recipient of our distinguished award. Marcus encompasses all the elements of a deserving recipient of the Alexis de Tocqueville Award, including an extensive career of service to the betterment of our community with no desire for personal recognition and a lasting commitment to United Way’s mission to eradicate poverty.
