GIVE Something Back

As ye may know, our official motto is: Take what ye can, GIVE  something back!™
We do our best to  stand by that and hope ye will to – supporting charitable groups that support and uplift the community. It’s not always about giving money (though that certainly helps), but often giving in other ways – time, energy, a kind ear to listen, sharing yer expertise…there are many ways to give back!

Confetti Kids are our main Partner and Charity to support in Algiers (aiming to build another safe & creative play space for the Kids in their neighbourhood) – but as true ambassadors o’ good, Confetti Kids also supports other charities!

We have two special charities we’re helping support in addition to Confetti Kids:

Algiers Point Lil’ Free Pantry: Come get your ‘pigture’ taken with Coco the Pyrate Pig. She will be at Larkin Park Saturday (25 Mar.) from 1pm – 3pm. Donate a non-perishable food item for our Algiers Point Lil Free Pantry and pose with our little scallywag.

Take what you need, Leave what you can. Share items that can make all the difference for a person in need, from things like dry pasta, canned fruit, cereal, and peanut butter, to diapers and baby formula.  615 Opelousas at the Community Garden. Visit the Facebook Group

Hungry For Music: Do you have instruments just gathering dust? Consider donating them to a child! The Hungry for Music bus will be at 601 Patterson on March 25, taking donations as part of the Treasures from the Point and Family Pyrate Day in partnership with Confetti Kids. Hungry for Music is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, dedicated to expanding opportunities in music for children. They collect and redistribute more than 500 instruments annually!

Supporting music education by distributing musical instruments to under served children with a hunger to play. Visit The Website
