LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Humana is honoring its late co-founder and longtime former CEO David Jones Sr. with three community projects.

The Humana Foundation plans to donate $2 million to the Parklands at Floyds Fork.

Humana will install a new plaque outside the entrance to the Humana building on Main Street, as well as commissioned by Louisville artist and sculptor Ed Hamilton.
