As fall & winter blanket our community in their chilly embrace, our longstanding commitment to aiding those in need shines ever brighter. At Lafayette Urban Ministry, we recognize that the winter season poses unique challenges for our most vulnerable neighbors. It's a time when the cold bites deeper, making the warmth of compassion an indispensable lifeline. While LUM tirelessly serves clients throughout the year, winter's arrival brings distinct hardships that demand special care and attention. Our mission stands resolute—to provide solace, support, and a sense of belonging.

Our winter mission is made possible through the kindness and support of our community. Whether you choose to volunteer your time, donate essential items, or contribute financially to LUM programs, your involvement can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve. Together, we can ignite warmth even on the coldest of winter nights, kindling the flames of compassion and hope. As we embark on this winter mission, let us remember that by serving those in need, we illuminate the path toward a brighter, more compassionate world for all.
