At the Acadiana Outreach Center, we meet people everyday who are poor, lonely, and struggling. They lack transportation, food, clothing, childcare, and are often mentally and spiritually drained. It's our mission to provide critical recovery services to help these families become sober, housed, and employed. To learn more, click here.

Hunters for the Hungry

It's time again to clean our your freezer for the annual Hunters for the Hungry Food Drive Sunday, September 19th from 10am - 3pm.  Each fall we collect frozen processed meat, fish and fowl from the 2009 season to feed our hungry neighbors in need in Acadiana.  Since Hunters for the Hungry began 10 years ago, we have been able to collect over 80,000 pounds of meat (240,000 meals...thank you!) but there is always more need.  This year we have a very aggressive goal of 15,000 pounds that we hope to collect in one day....but we need your help!

Please consider donating what you can on September 19th at one of these following locations:

Lafayette: UL Cajun Field

Carencro: St. Peter Street Fire Station

Crowley: Salvadore's Jewelry
Eunice: Eunice Fire Station
Henderson: Henderson Nina Fire Station
Youngsville: First Assembly of God Church on Verot School Rd.
Opelousas: Nissan of Opelousas
Jennings: Our Savior's Church

and more coming soon!
