Angel T Black Pot Cook Off

When we started the Angel T Black Pot Cook Off 8 years ago, we simply did it to give back to Maddie's Footprints, a non-profit that helps grieving families who experience pregnancy and/or infant loss, both financially and emotionally. Maddie’s Footprints saved our family in so many ways through our journey of grieving our sweet Tripp, who was born sleeping at 39 weeks pregnant, on July 3, 2016. At the time, raising a little money to Give Back in His Honor, was the least we could do.

Little did we know, our lil’ country cook off would turn into THIS💙 We are beyond honored to continue to support Maddie’s Footprints as they help more and more families every year, but we also now get to help so many other families and organizations in need…. All because our little boy caught the hearts of our amazing community.

As you will also see, we chose the amazing SCOTT KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS #7568 to be our secondary beneficiary this year. We could talk on and on about all that Maddie’s Footprints and the Scott KC’s do for our community daily…. But the biggest thing that our family has learned through our journey of giving for Tripp is that GOD REALLY CAN TURN YOUR TRIALS INTO TRIUMPHS!!!! While raising money for these amazing organizations is a true honor and the best feeling ever…. If you learn anything at all from us or our cook off, it’s that there is absolutely nothing life can throw at you that you CAN’T overcome!!! With God’s help & a lil strength from within, you truly can turn any pain into purpose, if you just BELIEVE and Let God Do His Thing 🙌🏼 So please, next time your facing any kind of life obstacle, challenge yourself to find the strength to look for hidden blessings!!! 💪🏼 I promise you won’t regret it!!

Lastly and most importantly… take a look at those numbers in the photo 👀 We set a goal a few years back to try to raise 500K by the time Tripp turned 10!!! This was a silly thought of ours that turned into reality this year, ALL BECAUSE OF YALL!!!! We truly have the greatest friends family and community, and these numbers prove that South Louisiana is truly the most selfless place on earth! Cheers to every single person who has ever been involved in anything “Angel T”!!! You’re the reason why so many lives have been touched!!
