Umbrella Walk & Gumbo Gras
Tucks Charitable Foundation Presents: Gumbo Gras & Umbrella Walk 2026
To our members, Captains, sponsors, gumbo teams, and friends of Tucks—What makes Tucks more than Mardi Gras is what we do together all year long. Thanks to your support, last year’s Gumbo Gras & Umbrella Walk raised nearly $70,000 for incredible organizations across our community—and helped us complete our $240,000 commitment to Manning Family Children’s Hospital with a final $50,000 gift.
Now…it’s time to do it again.

20.6 million Americans live with some form of ambulatory disability, requiring a mobility device.
Many of these people face an isolated world with few social interactions, health complications, a higher risk of suicide, a shorter life expectancy and few places to turn to.
