Hello and welcome to The River Foundation Podcast! Today, we speak with UTG Insurance Operations Manager Denise Henderson in the second of a two-parter. After learning about her journey up to this point, we hear how Denise flourishes in her role at UTG as she describes the joy she has found being able (and encouraged) to express her faith at work. She also describes how working with UTG and the River Foundation has led her to help better the lives of her co-workers, her family, and herself.
Denise currently serves on the Salvation Army Board, as well as the Kiwanis Club of Danville, and co-chairs the local Downtown River Foundation Committee. She's also served as the assistant director for the Rise and Shine Annual fundraiser for Sunrise Children's Services and is a devoted member of Junction City First Baptist Church where she actively serves on the Personnel Committee. She currently lives in Boyle County with her husband Levi and three children; Logan (14), Lincoln (6), and Lachlan (5 Months).
