Felipe’s Taqueria, a beloved staple among local foodies, is now allowing you to make a difference while enjoying your favorite tacos. For the next two months, diners will have the opportunity to support Shuck Cancer, an initiative by the American Cancer Society, dedicated to providing resources for cancer patients and their loved ones.
The Shuck Cancer initiative is more than just a charity; it’s a community-driven effort to support those battling cancer in Louisiana and beyond. Founded by young professionals in collaboration with New Orleans restaurateur John Michael Rowland, Shuck Cancer has become known as “the best party with a purpose in town.” This signature event brings together oysters from across the country, wine pairings, spirits, delectable dishes from 30 local restaurants, live music, and a mobile bidding silent auction.
Since its inception in 2018, Shuck Cancer donors have raised over one million dollars for the Access to Care Grant Program. This program is pivotal in providing transportation and lodging assistance to patients undergoing treatment in Louisiana health systems, helping to equalize cancer outcomes in our community.
Felipe’s Taqueria is making it seamless for you to contribute to this worthy cause. Upon checkout, guests will be prompted with an option to donate to Shuck Cancer directly from their display screen or handheld device, following the tip screen.
By simply choosing to donate, you’re joining Felipe’s Taqueria and the Shuck Cancer team in their mission to support cancer patients and their families, as cancer is close to almost all of us in some way.
Whether you’re a passionate foodie, a cancer awareness supporter, or an active member of the local community, your involvement matters. Together, we can help Shuck Cancer reach new heights in fundraising and support for those who need it most.
Feel inspired to join the movement? Visit Felipe’s Taqueria, enjoy delicious food, and support a cause that’s near to all our hearts. Let’s make a difference, one taco at a time!
