NEW ORLEANS (press release) – Toups Family Meal (TFM), Chef Isaac and Amanda Toups’ 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to fighting food insecurity in New Orleans, will host its second annual Easter Drive on Good Friday, Friday, April 18. On this day, TFM and a team of volunteers will distribute grocery boxes to 2,000 New Orleanians, empowering them to cook a beautiful Easter dinner at home.
