On Monday, July 27 the Blue Cross Blue Shield Foundation of Louisiana announced the eight winners of the 2009 Angel Awards. Amongst the recipients was Jill Rigby Garner, Founder and Executive Director of Manner of the Heart.  Best known as a parenting expert, award winning author, and presenter, Jill works to transform homes, schools, and communities by educating the hearts of children and adults young and old.

The Angel Award program seeks to honor “outstanding Louisianians to further their efforts to improve the quality of life for the state's children.” Each year, a committee comprised of past award recipients come together to review nominations from across the state of those individuals who so willingly donate their time and effort to bettering lives of Louisiana children “physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually.” This year the committee selected eight winners from a total of sixty-two nominations, spanning from every end of the state.
