History

It Takes A Village BR is a nonprofit organization devoted to serving the Greater Baton Rouge community.

What began with a cooked meal and a conversation with caring volunteers soon evolved into trusted relationships – creating family and community where there were none. 

As we faithfully work to provide food and clothing and promote dignity to our homeless neighbors, lives are transformed and spirits are lifted... all in efforts to build a network of resources to lift them off the streets. 

Relieving immediate hunger is fundamental step towards emotional and spiritual healing; earning an income; making a home; and developing healthy relationships. 

With dignity and respect, our caring volunteers prepare and deliver wholesome meals, clothing essentials, and hygiene products to our homeless brothers and sisters.
