3:00pm: Heritage Annual Festival of Spirituals 2024


Sat, Apr 13

Heritage Festival 2024

We’re honored to once again be invited to participate in Heritage’s Annual Festival of Spirituals! Heritage is a Spirituals chorale in Baton Rouge that’s analogous to us up here in NW Louisiana, founded and still directed by Clarence Jones. Before the pandemic, each year we’d go to their Festival on the first Saturday of Black History Month, and they in turn would come up to our Bobby Wiggins Festival of Spirituals on the last Saturday of Black History Month (announcement coming soon to this website), but since the pandemic we’ve been doing this in April instead.

Last year, 4,212 donors came together to raise a record $2¾ million for 207 area nonprofits. With a minimum donation amount of only $10, everyone can be a philanthropist. Simply visit giveforgoodnla.org to give directly to your organizations of choice.

How to Give:
