MONROE, La. (KNOE) - Random acts of kindness can lift someone’s day and create a ripple effect, where one good deed inspires another.

The Braddock Foundation has made it their mission to spread goodwill, generosity and grace in the memory of a loved one.

Braddock Field is named after Tarver, who lost his life in 2024 - it wasn’t long ago that Tarver was roaming the field with two Dixie World Series Championship squads.

To honor their son, Lindsey and Brett Braddock established a foundation to spread love, laughter and happiness through random acts of kindness.

Love remains their favorite four letter word, in two and a half years, they have provided sponsorships and surprise gifts totaling more than half a million dollars.

Through the tears, the Braddocks are determined to generate smiles, and they run on the generosity of donors. They say monthly pledges allow them to continue to spread kindness across North Louisiana.
