Lake Charles, LA (KPLC) - A family from Sulphur got a chance to win big on “Family Feud,” and they say they’re donating all their winnings back to the community.

The Portie Family appeared on the May 15 episode after submitting an audition tape to the game show that’s hosted by Steve Harvey.

They even managed to win $20,000!

Melissa Breaux Padgett said she and her family will be working with the Community Foundation of SWLA to set up a fund in her father’s honor to help underprivileged children to play sports and afford sports equipment.
