THREE PRIZES AND THREE WINNNERS
PRIZE 1
Hogs also partners with several hospitals to reach these families, including
Children’s Hospital of New Orleans, where, in 2018, Hogs built the Hogs House, a 13-suite, on-campus housing complex. In 2021 and 2022, Hogs for the Cause is partnering with
Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge to construct a 12-suite, extended-stay, on-campus facility for families receiving treatment. The grants provided and the extended-stay facilities being constructed by Hogs are aimed to reduce the financial, emotional, and physical stress for families. In the last decade, Hogs has also made over $500,000 in direct grants to over 200 families in the New Orleans area.
One of the key components and contributors to fundraising for Hogs are the teams participating in
Hogs for the Cause (the event), a 2-day music and food festival, fundraiser, and barbecue cookoff. Our team, Chew Forks Farms, is an
award-winning team that has been directly supporting Hogs since 2015. Hogs for the Cause, both the charitable organization and the event, has grown from its humble beginnings as a local organization with regional impact to an organization impacting the lives of those battling pediatric cancer across the nation. As a result, Hogs has garnered the attention of national publications like the
New York Times and
Forbes, and raised $2.6 Million in 2022.
