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.)
