Rapides Regional Medical Center presented UTLX Manufacturing with this year’s RRMC Community Benefit Award during June 13’s Central Louisiana Regional Chamber of Commerce Bizzy Awards.
Since 1903, RRMC has been responding to the needs of the community through their mission of providing high quality, efficient and compassionate healthcare. RRMC continues this commitment more than 120 years later in the investment of the community to make it healthier and accessible to healthcare. To do that, RRMC has a Community Benefit Committee that identifies the biggest areas of need – such as heart and cancer health, physical fitness, heart disease and obesity – and develops a plan to address those needs.
That’s why the medical center recognizes other businesses that are doing the hard work in improving and investing in Central Louisiana.
UTLX is making a difference in the community. It sponsors numerous schools and non-profit organizations. Its colleagues can be found volunteering at the Manna House to the Kent House, as well as the Food Bank, the American Cancer Society and so much more. Most importantly, they provide supplies and time to help train – pun included – the workforce of tomorrow.
In less than two decades, UTLX has not only made Central Louisiana home, it has made an impact in the community, and RRMC honors that commitment.
