SAVE THE DATE FOR SUGAR CANE BALL 2024 – FEBRUARY 17
SAVE THE DATE FOR HANOVER CHARITIES & CHUKKA FOUNDATION ANNUAL POLO EVENT 2024– FEBRUARY 18.
The Kitchen of Love, our soup kitchen in Lucea, feeds over 600 homeless, indigent and elderly once per week.
Over the course of a year, we help hundreds of adults and children through educational and health related programs – computer labs, health fairs and more. That’s just the start.
Our scholarship program helps more than 200 tertiary students achieve their educational goals each year. Our students have it all—drive, smarts, passion—but no resources.
Our work is purely volunteer and unpaid. Every dollar raised goes directly to help the lives of our friends and neighbors in Hanover Parish – especially education from basic school age.
Save the date for 2023 and celebrate with us on February 18!
