She Is...Leadership: Entergy’s Deanna Rodriguez Embraces the Challenges and Rewards of Serving New Orleans
Growing up on the Texas/Mexico border, Deanna Rodriguez had first-hand experience with a melting pot of cultures and languages.
Guided by a promise to help our clients and communities grow and thrive, our visionary founders understood the need for a strong community partner. A partner that could provide resources through people, money, expertise and banking relationships to make our cities and towns better.
Our commitment to engage with our communities and measure success not only on balance sheets, but in the vibrancy of our neighborhoods, is why we are still standing strong and stable today.
A cornerstone of our identity, our community programs aim to enrich lives and lay the foundation to help our communities prosper.
We understand and embrace the vision of the Community Reinvestment Act. We aim to guide all of our clients—including low and moderate income individuals—on their journey to reach their financial goals and are equally committed to strengthening the economic health of the communities that depend on us.
Our core commitment to create opportunities for people and communities includes initiatives—big and small—to preserve our environment, expand social responsibility, and ingrain ethics essential to good governance.
