The Amite Chamber of Commerce is proud to recognize Kennedy Johnson as one of our 2026 Scholarship recipients!

Kennedy is a graduate of Amite Magnet High School and will be attending Southeastern Louisiana University this Fall, where she plans to major in Criminal Justice. We are excited to see all that she will accomplish as she begins this next chapter and know she will continue to make our community proud.

Kennedy stopped by the Chamber office this week to receive her scholarship certificate, where she was joined by her mother, LaKeisha Johnson. Presenting the certificate were Chamber President Luther Tolliver, Treasurer LaShawn Smith, and Board Member Alicia Gilbert.

Each year, the Amite Chamber of Commerce is honored to invest in the future of our local students through our scholarship program. These scholarships are made possible because of the continued support of our Chamber members and sponsors. Your membership, sponsorships, and participation in Chamber events allow us to give back to our community and help students like Kennedy pursue their dreams of higher education.

Thank you to all of our members and sponsors for making opportunities like this possible.

Please join us in congratulating Kennedy and wishing her the very best as she begins her journey at Southeastern!

The Amite Chamber of Commerce would like to thank everyone who joined us for our June Monthly Luncheon and extend a special thank you to our guest speaker, Dawson Primes, Director of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness for Tangipahoa Parish.

Dawson shared valuable information on what to expect during this year's hurricane and severe weather season, along with practical tips on how our businesses and community can prepare before a storm strikes. As we saw with the severe weather that moved through our area just one day later and continued into the weekend, his presentation couldn't have come at a better time.

Thank you, Dawson, for taking time out of your busy schedule to help keep our community informed, prepared, and resilient.

Mark your calendars! Our next Chamber Luncheon will be held on Wednesday, July 8, featuring Lt. Ethan Dunn with the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office and Tangipahoa 911. We hope you'll join us for another informative program!

As always, thank you to our members, sponsors, and guests for your continued support of the Amite Chamber of Commerce. Special thanks to BankPlus and Hood Memorial Hospital for our door prizes. Together, we're building a stronger business community.

The Amite Chamber of Commerce was proud to recognize two exceptional graduating seniors by awarding each a $1,000 Amite Chamber of Commerce College Scholarship during our monthly luncheon yesterday.

Congratulations to our 2026 scholarship recipients:

Kennedy Johnson, graduate of Amite High Magnet School and daughter of Lionel and LaKeisha Johnson.

Jaiden Rogers, graduate of Oak Forest Academy and daughter of James and Allison Rogers.

While Kennedy was unable to attend the luncheon, we were delighted to celebrate with Jaiden and her parents as she received her scholarship certificate and check. This fall, Jaiden will attend Southeastern Louisiana University, where she will major in Marketing in the College of Business. We wish her the very best as she begins this exciting new chapter!

These scholarships recognize students whose academic achievements, leadership, and commitment to their future stood out among a highly competitive group of applicants. We are honored to invest in these outstanding young women and can't wait to see all they accomplish.

Congratulations again, Kennedy and Jaiden! Thank you for making our community proud, and best wishes for a bright and successful future.

On hand to present the scholarship certificates were some of our wonderful Board Members: Whitney Jones, Jewel McCoy, Dr. Jacob Roger Smith, LaShawn Smith, Bridget Gaines Keyser, Luther Tolliver, Heather Burrell, Ali Leto-Roberts and Justin Hebert.
