Mission
Create a bridge between the community and children in need, who have been affected by a traumatic experience, while laying a foundation for their journey to healing by providing support and essential materials.
Program accomplishments
- In 2025, Loving Our Community's Children, Ascension Affiliate provided clothing, toys, and other essential items (hygiene items, beds, cribs, strollers, etc.) to over 223 families representing over 577 children. These children were from low income homes in Ascension Parish and surrounding parishes with many referred by mandatory reporters. All items provided to these families were received as donations and provided at no cost to the child's family. Although most work for the organization is accomplished by a team of volunteers, one part-time employee performed administrative tasks and assisted with facility operations for a majority of 2025. The organization operates from a portion of a building hosted by Fellowship Church in Ascension Parish and a second location hosted by The Tinker FOundation also in Ascension Parish at no cost to the organization.Expenses $24,153 · grants $19,185
