The 26th Annual Bramlett Beans & Cornbread Community Fundraiser will be held at the Texarkana Convention Center on Thursday, December 5th, from 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.
The community is invited to savor a hearty bowl of beans and cornbread while supporting a great cause. For just $5 or a donation of six non-perishable food items, attendees can enjoy a meal while making a difference.
This beloved tradition began in 1991, thanks to Paula Jeans, who sought to honor her late father by giving back to the community. That first year, the effort provided food for five baskets. In 1998, the Texarkana, Texas Parks and Recreation Department expanded the initiative by introducing the Beans & Cornbread fundraiser luncheon. With the support of former Texarkana, Texas Mayor James Bramlett, the event became an enduring community staple. Now, 32 years later, the tradition continues to grow, helping more families each year.
