Join Me as I Serve Up Excitement at BRCAC's 17th Annual Celebrity Waiter Event! 🎂

I’m honored to participate in this year’s Celebrity Waiter in Baton Rouge, LA as a waiter for this year’s fundraiser to support the Baton Rouge Children’s Advocacy Center on Wednesday, July 19th @ L'Auberge Casino & Hotel Baton Rouge

Terrance Morgan, Celebrity Waiter 2023, via: BRCAC Website

The Celebrity Waiter Event (CW) is the one and only fundraiser for the Baton Rouge Children’s Advocacy Center. The event has been held since 2006, working to raise funds to help provide the services the BRCAC offers to the many child abuse victims and their families.

Every year, each “Celebrity Waiter” competes in a Tip competition with the goal to obtain the most donations for the CAC.
