JOSH & BLYTHE
As we have everything that we need, we encourage anyone who would like to get a gift to donate to one of the following organizations. We really mean this, and hope that the links below will make donating easy!
The Promise of Justice Initiative - Client and Family Assistance Project
As many of you know, Blythe works on behalf of incarcerated people in Louisiana’s prisons. Part of her work is through the Promise of Justice Initiative (PJI). A donation to the PJI “Client and Family Assistance Project” will provide incarcerated men and women educational and art materials, and basic necessities like warm winter clothing and hygiene products. PJI also helps clients remain in contact with loved ones by funding phone calls and driving family members for visits at the prison. Donations to the project
also help clients who have been recently released get on their feet, including assistance finding housing and immediate medical and mental health access.

Second Harvest provides food and support to 700+ community partners and programs across 23 parishes. Our staff and volunteers distribute the equivalent of more than 32 million meals to 210,000+ people a year.

Every year, Second Harvest secures millions of pounds of food that otherwise would have gone to waste.
