Tales of the Cocktail Foundation is partnering with Children’s Hospital New Orleans to raise much-needed funds, and they want your help.
All proceeds this dynamic duo raise via people’s generosity will benefit TOTCF and CHNOLA directly.
By now, you know Tales. While we all look forward to their annual gathering of the bartender community, Tales works all year to advocate for and support hospitality. However, you may be unfamiliar with CHNOLA if you live outside of Louisiana.
Like TOTCF, CHNOLA is a non-profit organization. Next year, the pediatric acute care children’s teaching hospital will celebrate its 70th anniversary. Perhaps unsurprisingly, CHNOLA operates in affiliation with the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center. In operation for nearly 100 years, LSU Health is home to several key medical schools, and patient care clinics.
Serving those who are just days old to 21 years of age, CHNOLA is a crucial member of the New Orleans community. In fact, as the only children’s hospital in the LCMC Health network, CHNOLA serves not only NOLA, not only the state of the Louisiana, but the entirety of the Gulf Coast region.
Supporting TOTCF and CHNOLA is rewarding in and of itself. But doing so via the dedicated link below will enter one winner per raffle (there are two) for two suite tickets for the Taylor Swift Eras concert being held on October 26 in New Orleans.
You’ll find more details below. Good luck to all who give and enter, and cheers!
