The Broussard Endowment

The Mission of The Broussard Endowment (TBE) is to support students of all ages within the Houston intercity and surrounding area. TBE has helped hundreds of school aged children with scholarships and a variety of school projects. It has also aided school sports programs by calibrating with other businesses and donors to provide new uniforms and equipment. TBE has also assisted students during Hurricane Katrina, by providing tuition and as well as school uniforms and supplies.

The Annual Creole Heritage Zydeco & Crawfish Festival is the primary benefit supporting The Broussard Endowment and your sponsorship of the Festival is crucial to the Endowments continued mission to support students in their academic endeavors. With your support TBE can continue to providing scholarships and funding for worthwhile school projects.
