Walk-On’s Game On Foundation

SUPPORTING YOUTH ATHLETICS

The Walk-On’s Game On Foundation is inspired by our roots on the courts and fields of our communities. Our 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization’s mission is to rebuild or refurbish youth sports facilities in our restaurant communities. The Game On Foundation has refurbished two basketball courts in Baton Rouge and has one under construction currently in Melbourne, FL.

AIDING RELIEF EFFORTS

Knowing that hurricane season impacts our restaurant communities heavily almost annually - Walk-On's Relief Kitchens have also been funded by our Game On Foundation. In 2020, we activated 5 relief kitchens and served over 9,000 meals in the Lake Charles and Mississippi affected areas. In 2021, we served over 4,500 meals to the Terrebonne Parish Community.

In collaboration with Furlough Kitchen in Dallas, Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux launched Furlough Kitchen by Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux in 2020 during the COVID-19 crisis. Our operation, run through the Walk-On's Game On Foundation, provided furloughed workers one free meal, no matter their former employer. Furlough Kitchen by Walk-On’s operated out of a food truck or curbside at our restaurants and offered food to anyone in need. Through product and monetary donations, we were able to serve 30,000 meals across 6 states.
