The Foundation is composed of up to 15 board members who are responsible for governing the organization, strategic planning and fiscal oversight.
Heather Bradford – President
Kristian Key – Vice President
Jessica Adams – Secretary
Jeremy Davis – Treasurer
Jeremy Davis is Environmental Services Manager at Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center. Originally from Chauvin, Louisiana, He graduated from Nicholls State University in 2013 with a B.S. in Management and is currently pursuing his MBA from Tulane University. He has been a volunteer for Chauvinfest, Race for the Cure, and has organized several fundraisers for Muscular Dystrophy Association. Jeremy is currently a member of Ochsner’s employee advisory council at Chabert Medical Center. His drive to always strive for excellence has much to do with Jeremy’s poor vision due to retinal dystrophy. This has only made Jeremy strive harder and harder in anything he puts his mind to. Jeremy was a recipient of the 2017 Terrebonne Parish Young Achievers Award. In his spare time, he loves to read or listen to podcasts on anything that inspires him to improve in any aspect of life. Jeremy’s grandfather Wilbert “Shus” Trahan also passed down the love of wrestling to him. Through his life, he saw first-hand the amount of destruction our culture and coastal wetlands have taken over the years from the countless hurricanes and disasters. He loves the cajun culture and continues to help educate others to help preserve our simple way of life.
