Who We Are

Gifting Grace Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Lafayette, Louisiana, dedicated to freely loving, serving, and supporting homeless and vulnerable children across Acadiana. Our mission is to remove barriers, restore hope, and empower every child to pursue their God-given purpose.

Since 2020, we’ve reached over 2,000 children annually across nine parishes through quarterly outreach projects—providing essentials like school supplies, clothing, hygiene products, and personalized Christmas gifts.
