On October 31, 2025 Tier 1 Institute participated in Habitat for Humanity’s Cooking on the Square. The event raised over $200,000 for the Cookeville Habitat for Humanity.

Dr. Roberts and Dr. Pahl each cooked batches of gumbo, with other physicians and staff serving the community. A great time was had by all.

Tier 1 is proud to support many local organizations and engage with the community!

“Cooking on the Square is a vibrant celebration that brings the community together for a delightful Cajun-themed feast every year on the last Friday in October, raising funds to build homes for families in need. This beloved event transforms the town square into a lively hub filled with the tantalizing aromas of Cajun cuisine.
Vendors showcase their culinary skills, offering everything from spicy jambalaya and gumbo to beignets and crawfish étouffée. Whether you’re a seasoned foodie or just looking to enjoy some good company and great food, Cooking on the Square is the perfect way to embrace the flavors and spirit of Cajun culture. It’s a true celebration of community, flavor, and fun that keeps locals and visitors coming back year after year!”
