The Cook-Off for the Coast is hosted by Restore the Mississippi River Delta, Vanishing Paradise, and the Meraux Foundation in partnership with Saint Bernard Parish Coastal Division, St. Bernard Parish Tourism, and Nunez Community College.
In-kind donations from businesses big and small, local law enforcement, parish government, non-profits and, of course, our cook teams help us put on this event at minimal cost.
Every year, sponsorships from local businesses, partner organizations, non-profits and individuals help the Cook-Off raise money for restoration work in St. Bernard Parish and empower the next generation of coastal leaders. Along with tee shirt sales, poster sales and donations from Cook-Off attendees on the day of the event we have continued to grow our impact year after year while keeping the event free to attend and to eat! We thank you for your continued support while we raise awareness about the Coast and have some fun doing it.
If you are interested in supporting the Cook-Off or learning more about our sponsorship levels, please email Chris Haines (chrishaines@merauxfoundation.org) at the Meraux Foundation to learn more.
