OUR 2026 CONFERENCE CHARITIES


Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana
The Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL) works to restore and protect Louisiana’s coastal wetlands. For over 35 years, CRCL has led efforts to address land loss through hands-on habitat restoration, environmental education, and advocacy. By engaging local communities and volunteers, they work to strengthen the resilience of coastal ecosystems and the people who depend on them.
Each donation directly supports CRCL’s ongoing initiatives to rebuild wetlands, create living shorelines, and preserve Louisiana’s vital coastal environment for future generations.
The Roots of Music
The Roots of Music is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering New Orleans youth through music education, academic support, and mentorship. Serving young people, ages 3-18, the programs provide high-quality music instruction alongside tutoring, meals, and transportation, helping students build confidence, discipline, and life skills both in and out of the classroom. Through performances and cultural engagement, The Roots of Music preserves New Orleans’ rich musical heritage while investing in the next generation of leaders.
Every dollar donated directly supports instruments, instruction, and enrichment opportunities that allow students to thrive academically, artistically, and personally.
BON TEMPS AT BOURBON VIEUX
After days of big ideas and big insights, it’s no wonder the Big Easy is tapping you on the shoulder!
Yes, the Crescent City is calling, but before you answer, join us at Bourbon Vieux, home to Bourbon Street’s largest balcony, where the music spills into the streets, the energy never fades, and the French Quarter glows all night long.
Let us bayou a drink (or two!) as you enjoy incredible food and soak in the atmosphere with friends old and new. Then make the night your own — while it’s still young. Follow the music, chase the lights, or let your sense of adventure take the lead. In a city built on jazz, sometimes the best nights are improvised.
