Good Spirits for Feb. 6 Cafe

Spirits were high at the Crescent City Cafe on Saturday, Feb. 6. It was the day before the Super Bowl - the Saints’ team was making its first appearance in the big game - and Carnival season was in full swing!

Nearly 75 people walked, rode bikes or took the streetcar to make it to breakfast on this chilly February morning, but no one was thinking about the weather. Volunteers cheerfully talked and served guests, and guests cheerfully ate warm, delicious meals. The plates were filled full with scrambled, eggs, bacon, toast and more!

Young adults came out in force to help serve breakfast to those who are homeless in our city. Nearly 30 volunteers served as hosts, waiters, cooks and more to make the Crescent City Cafe a success!

If you are a young adult in New Orleans, please volunteer with us in the future. We can use your help publicizing the event, prepping food or working the cafe. Contact Volunteer Coordinator Georgia McBride and please tell her how you’d like to be involved.
