What’s in a Geaux Bag?

Geaux Bags are filled with pajamas, toiletries and a comfort item to make that first night easier for everyone. These bags help both child and foster parent during the emergency transition by having the necessities and comfort items on hand.

Project Just Be-Clause

Just Be-Clause was started to provide Christmas presents for teens from the ages of 13 to 18 who have been identified as in crisis by school resource officers in Caddo and Bossier Parish schools.

With most Christmas present drives catering to the younger children, we found a need for these children to also experience the holiday season. That is why we decided to help “Just Be-Clause.”
