Humana employees partner with Atkinson Elementary students

 
On a visit to Okolona Elementary during this year's Leadership Louisville "Education Day", Jon Kerekes (LL '08) of Humana saw firsthand the impact adult volunteers could have on a school's success.  
 
Inspired by what he saw, Jon presented the idea to a Humana community outreach team. After researching several schools, Humana employees learned about Atkinson Elementary students who participate in a national ballroom dancing program.
