Mission
Feed the Second Line is committed to building a resilient and sustainable future by strengthening the safety net, preserving culture through paid opportunities, and creating supportive pathways for all generations of culture bearers - uplifting the ones who make our city special.
Activities or mission (Part I)

-
Hire the Second Line is Feed the Second Lines job creation initiative designed to provide paid opportunities for the culture bearers who keep New Orleans traditions alive. This includes Masking Indians, Baby Dolls, musicians, Social Aid Pleasure Club members, drummers, and other practitioners of New Orleans cultural heritage. The program ensures that culture bearers are compensated for their cultural labor and can continue sharing their craft with the community. Across all Feed the Second Line programming, we hire culture bearers so that every event, workshop, and cultural activation directly supports the people who make New Orleans culture possible.

Get Lit Stay Lit is Feed the Second Lines solar-resilience initiative designed to protect residents during power outages by transforming neighborhood restaurants and community spaces into solar-powered resilience hubs. These hubs are equipped with solar panels and battery storage, allowing them to operate as cooling centers, phone-charging stations, and safe gathering spaces when the grid goes down. In 2024, Feed the Second Line installed two new resilience hubs, bringing the total network to eight solar-powered hubs across New Orleans. These locations are positioned in neighborhoods that experience frequent outages and have limited access to traditional disaster resources. Throughout the year, New Orleans experienced several brief outages during regular business hours. Continued on Schedule O
