Welcome to Planet Gumbo--A Super Cool Place to Live!
Bill "Sauceboss" Wharton created the 501c3 Non-Profit Foundation, Planet Gumbo, in January 2003, in order to form a group of "Planeteers" who want to provide hope and sustenance to folks in need.

Helping Feed The Homeless
The Sauceboss helps nourish body and soul
While on tour across the country, the Sauceboss and his band take some of their days off to go to a local shelter, play some music, cook some gumbo and help spread a message of hope. Here's a few of the shelters they have played. If one of them is near you, the Google map will help you find it so you can get involved. (Please be patient while the map loads in.)
