Try as you might to tread lightly through this world, you do have an impact on others. Every choice you make leads to action — or inaction — that leaves an indelible imprint on the lives of those around you.

We are looking for a handful of young people who are bright, creative and mindful to help us kick-off the Bayou Footprint Initiative. It’s a movement dedicated to a friend who had a profound impact in his short time with us.
