In addition to listening to the panel, attendees also received a brief update on the impact of Tocqueville Society donations from Shawna Forsberg, president and CEO of United Way of the Midlands, and James Blackledge.
The Tocqueville Society is a group of generous donors who each invest $10,000 or more into our community through United Way. As Shawna shared at the forum, Tocqueville members have given back more than $96 million to the Omaha-Council Bluffs metro since the Society was founded in 1988. We are so grateful for these passionate and generous individuals who set the standard for charitable giving in the metro and inspire others to join them along the way!

We’d like to extend our deepest gratitude to Mutual of Omaha for generously underwriting the Tocqueville Community Forum.
