At the Louisiana Center for Children's Rights, we go to the mat for our kids every day -- in the courtroom, in the classroom, and in the community. But sometimes what stands between our kids and success are barriers seemingly small, but insurmountable to a family that's struggling to get by.
Andre needs a state ID card to enroll in a job training program. Terrence needs new clothes after his release from prison, where he had been incarcerated since he was a child. Angela and her family need a hotel stay as temporary shelter after having sustained flooding during Hurricane Ida.
No child should sink deeper into the justice system because they cannot afford the small costs that matter so much to their success. Previously, our staff would cover these costs out of pocket -- in some cases literally giving kids the shoes off our feet. But it wasn't sustainable, as those $50, $100, and $200 costs really added up.
That's why this holiday season, I'm rallying to raise money for LCCR's Small Favors Fund -- a reserve used to help our children and juvenile lifers cover the small costs that stand in the way of opportunity.
- For just $25, you can purchase books for one of our incarcerated kids
- For $50, you can provide a school uniform to one of our children in need
- For $100, you can rent a moving van for one of our families experiencing eviction
- For $250, you can purchase a Chromebook to aid one of our kids with his schooling
- And for $500, you can help two of our kids' families regain their footing after a major hurricane
Black and brown children are the ones most likely to be pulled into the juvenile legal system, and face the biggest obstacles in exiting it. I can spare a few bucks to cover the small costs that will help a child leave the legal system behind for good. I hope you can, too.
Together, let's rally to remove obstacles to our kids' success... and change lives for the better. MAKE YOUR GIFT TODAY!
