Today at CUPS (9/22/11)
WE HAD A COUPLE OF CASE MANAGERS COME IN TO GET ITEMS FOR THEIR CLIENTS.
WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HELP A VERY APPRECIATIVE YOUNG LADY GET SOME BEDS IN ORDER FOR HER TO GET HER KIDS BACK FROM THE STATE.
ALSO, A KIND MAN BROUGHT US A SMALL FRIDGE FOR THE CUPS KITCHEN SO WE CAN KEEP THE CREAM FOR OUR COFFEE COLD! yum...
New CUPS Location is Now OPEN!!!
Ok, so we've been "open" for a couple weeks, but we had some kinks to get worked out and furniture to arrange 8000 times until it felt JUST right.... but we've done that and so now... dun da da DAH.... We're ready to say that we are open.... :-)
So, everyone is welcome to come by 211 A Guilbeau Rd in Lafayette on Thurs & Fri 12-6 or Sat 12-4 and see the new place.
We are still offering assistance by appointment only. The number to call for that is still 337-234-4848.
Don't let the "Stereo One" sign out front fool you - CUPS is open and running full speed ahead... :-) We'll get that sign down soon! and are working on hanging up an actual, real-life CUPS sign asap! CUPS has NEVER had a real sign out front of any of our buildings... but we like this place and think you will to, so we are getting a sign!
We haven't really announced that we are open, but we have already been able to accept several - like maybe 9 truck-loads full! of donations. And we've assisted a couple families with household items. At least two families with emergency food. Two others received a small bit of financial assistance from our compassion fund.... and the list of folks waiting for assistance is growing daily as Marilyn tries to keep up with the phone calls!
Come by and visit, share some abundance, drink some coffee, and maybe even add a prayer to the post-it note prayer wall..... We'd love to see ya!
