ESSENCE and Tina Knowles-Lawson Honor Baton Rouge Hometown Heroes At 'Love on Louisiana' Event

ESSENCE partnered with Tina Knowles-Lawson, Solange and Kelly Rowland for the 'Love on Louisiana' pre-Thanksgiving tribute dinner to celebrate local leaders who gave back to communities affected by historic floods in Baton Rouge earlier this year. As residents of Louisiana battled with yet another environmental set back, these hometown heroes managed to help others who were in need. Take a look at these heartwarming photos of Baton Rouge residents from all walks of life, coming together to support and celebrate each other.
