5PM UPDATE: We have exciting news! One of our top donors reached out to say that if we can hit our $12,000 fundraising goal by midnight, he will give us a bonus $5,000. WOW!
We're closing in fast. Will you help push us over the top to unlock this special prize?

It's Giving Tuesday! And for those who get in early, we have a very special opportunity. Our board of directors has generously pledged to DOUBLE all gifts made to the Louisiana Center for Children's Rights before noon on Tuesday 12/3.
That's right! Give before noon and LCCR's board will DOUBLE the impact of your support!
Your giving makes a world of difference to kids like Gerard, who had no family left to turn to after the death of his grandfather/guardian. Homeless and disconnected from school, Gerard was arrested after being caught sleeping in the closet of a home he thought was unoccupied. Instead of getting the help he so desperately needed, Gerard was sent to jail.
Thanks to the support of donors like you, LCCR's attorneys helped Gerard get released from jail. We got him into a local youth shelter and enrolled him in a HiSET education program. We helped him replace his clothes and vital documents. But most critically, we helped him get the stability and support he needed to plan for his future—something all kids require.
Over the past year, LCCR served 593 kids in New Orleans, and another 136 in Baton Rouge. Thank you for helping make our work possible.
