🐷🔥 **It’s officially Hogs season again — and Team Porktoberfest is back.**

For the past several years, I’ve been proud to participate in **Hogs for the Cause**, an organization that brings together some of the things New Orleans does best — food, music, community and generosity — for an incredibly important mission: helping families affected by pediatric brain cancer and supporting the fight against this devastating disease.

Today, I’m officially kicking off my fundraising campaign for **Hogs for the Cause 2027**.

Yes, the festival isn’t until **April 2027**. But that gives Team **Porktoberfest** plenty of time to raise some serious money between now and then. 🐷

Hogs for the Cause provides financial assistance to families navigating pediatric brain cancer while also supporting research and programs dedicated to improving outcomes for these children. That mission is why I keep coming back year after year.

So I’m starting early.

If you’ve donated to me or supported Porktoberfest in years past, **thank you**. I hope you’ll be part of it again this year.

And if you’re new to Hogs, consider this your invitation. You can donate today, share my fundraising page, follow along over the next several months — and, of course, come see us in April for one of the best weekends of the year.

**Every donation counts, and there’s no such thing as starting too early for a cause this important.**

The late philosopher Jürgen Habermas believed that “the essence of democracy was discourse, back-and-forth argument about ideas and values,” Adam Kirsch writes. America’s autocratic turn darkened what Habermas called a “politically rather favored life”: https://theatln.tc/w3c9tcge

As you all have seen, I am fanatical about giving back to the community, not only in new endeavors soon to be revealed, but in fun commitments to things like Hogs For The Cause on Team — but none of the fundraising could have happened without the support of incredible people and small businesses like Bella Home Staging & Cleaning. LLC and Megan Kiefer ‘s firm Kiefer & Kiefer and Recovery Chiromed and so many wonderful folks I cannot thank enough. Thanks to them and to you, I am only $175 away from my fundraising goal 💜💜💜🐽🐷🐖🫶🏻
