Giving Back to Louisiana

September 10th, 2016

In Denver Colorado, a group of people with ties to Louisiana held a fund raiser to benefit flood victims in Louisiana.

Held on September 2, 2016 at Stoney’s Bar and Grill, in Denver,  the group raised over $6300.00 to sponsor families to gut and rebuild.  The proceeds went to the Nola Tree Project headquartered in New Orleans but working in Denham Springs and surrounding areas.

The group served Gumbo, Jambalaya, Etouffee, Red Beans, and had 75 raffle prizes from various places around Denver. The food was donated by Sysco and some volunteers.  The beer was donated by New Belgium and Pabst. Stoney’s Bar and Grill donated everything else. Tony and the Blue Krewe played live music.
