·1 hr 19 min·5 clips

Bless Your Heart says more than $500,000 passed through the account in 2023.

Raj Jambal fills in for Brennan Mathurne. He opens the show with a Bless Your Heart Nonprofit update and sits down with director Jere Jean-Bon Jarreau and new team member Ashley Oten, keeping the conversation grounded in South Lafourche and the community the nonprofit serves. The tone stays easy and conversational. Jere shares a short personal summary, talking about her parents Jude and Corrine, her brother Ross, her marriage to Jordan, and the two children keeping life busy at home. Then the work comes into view. From there, the conversation turns to what the nonprofit does day to day, including cleanup events, a 5K cook-off, and the many small jobs that help those gatherings happen. Young people step in. Junior high students and National Honor Society kids help with race packets, shirts, and cleanup, often carrying a good attitude through long stretches of work. That service matters. The hosts linger on how those students give their time without expecting anything back, and they treat that as part of the lesson. The episode also takes a playful local turn. A few boys turn cleanup-day momentum into a small business called The Clean Team, offering pressure washing and grass cutting in Vega Village. It starts with fun. The conversation suggests that one good volunteer day can plant a seed for the next project, and sometimes even a business. Gratitude runs through it. Jere and Ashley thank the kids for making the events possible and make sure the volunteers get their due. The episode also cares about memory. The team talks about recording local history so important people and stories do not disappear, including the story of Mr. Roland. The point is clear. Bless Your Heart Nonprofit wants its work, its people, and its community record to stay visible for the long haul.
