🧡 Total Donations:

Plus winter clothing, scarves, hats, socks, shoes, toiletries, and a case of water bottles. We even received thoughtful handwritten notes from Bourg Elementary students.

All items have been delivered to The Firm Foundation’s Homeless Day Center in Houma, and our Homeless Outreach Team will continue distributing items directly to community members.

Many Louisiana families qualify for free or low-cost health coverage but aren’t enrolled yet.

Start Corp’s new Connecting Kids to Coverage (CKC) program is here to change that. The CKC program helps children, parents, and pregnant women access affordable health insurance through Medicaid and CHIP.

CKC provides support with:
✨ Understanding coverage options
✨ Identifying who may be eligible
✨ Helping families apply, renew, and keep their coverage

If you or someone you know could benefit from this program, visit our website to get connected to support.
