SUMMARY:CenLA Open House and Community Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:Dear Community Members\, \nWe’re excited to invite you to “Calling All STARs: A Community Open House & Fundraiser\,” an opportunity to connect\, contribute\, and help empower sexual assault survivors in Central Louisiana. The event will take place at STAR’s Central Louisiana office\, and we would be honored to have your presence and support. \nTour. Donate. Empower.\nThis isn’t just a fundraiser\, it’s an open invitation to see firsthand the impact of our work. At STAR\, we provide free\, trauma-focused therapy delivered by licensed clinicians to both adults and children\, regardless of system involvement. We also offer case management\, emergency financial assistance\, and free legal representation to survivors of sexual trauma. From July 1\, 2024 to June 30\, 2025\, our Central Louisiana staff of three full-time and one part-time employees provided 5\,846 services to survivors. \nUnfortunately\, like many service providers\, we’ve been impacted by significant grant funding cuts this year. Despite this\, the need for our services continues to grow. Your support can help ensure that survivors continue to receive the critical\, compassionate care they deserve. \nWe are asking community members\, businesses\, and partners to get involved in the following ways: \n\nAttend our open house\, take a tour\, and learn more about what we do.\nDonate to sponsor vital services for survivors in the coming year.\nContribute refreshments or door prizes to help make this event welcoming and successful.\nSpread the word to others who care about building a safer\, more healing-centered community.\n\nYour donation funds the critical services survivors in Central Louisiana count on. Whether it’s a survivor needing transportation to an appointment\, a child receiving legal representation for a protection order\, or a parent receiving group therapy\, your contribution makes healing\, safety\, and justice possible. \nWe hope you’ll answer the call and join us. Together\, we can continue building a community free from sexual trauma and oppression. \nWith gratitude\, \nMorgan Lamandre\, Esq.\nPresident & CEO
