Boots, Bottles & Bowls Chili Cook-Off 2025
Thank you for showing up, stirring the pots, and making our first Chili Cook-Off unforgettable!
A huge thank-you to all 11 teams who showed up, stirred up, and served up their best bowls for a cause. We didn’t catch a photo of the Best Decorated Booth this year — but trust us, it was unforgettable.

From the cooks who brought the heat to the guests who came with big smiles and bigger appetites — every bit of your support made this fundraiser possible. Together, we raised funds to continue building pathways to independence for the foster youth and young adults we serve.
We also shared part of the proceeds with Folds of Honor, in honor of a valued supporter whose dedication reminds us what community truly means.
