Wouldn't it be great if the Acadiana Outreach Center earned a donation every time you searched the Internet? Or how about if a percentage of every purchase you made online went to support our cause?  Well, now it can!

GoodSearch.com is a new Yahoo-powered search engine that donates half its advertising revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its users designate.  Use it just as you would any search engine and get quality search results from Yahoo!

GoodShop.com is also a new online shopping mall which donates up to 30 percent of each purchase to your favorite cause! Hundreds of great stores including Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, ebay, Macy's and Barnes & Noble have teamed up with GoodShop and every time you place an order, you'll be supporting Acadiana Outreach Center.

And if you download the GoodSearch – Acadiana Outreach Center toolbar, our cause will earn money every time you shop and search online - even if you forget to go to GoodShop or GoodSearch first! Add the Acadiana Outreach Center toolbar at http://www.goodsearch.com/toolbar/acadiana-outreach-center

Visit GoodSearch.com and designate Acadiana Outreach Center as your charity to help raise money for.  Thanks!

H1N1 Vaccines at the Recovery Action Center

The Recovery Action Center hosted the Office of Public Health on Monday, March 8th as they distributed free H1N1 vaccinations to the public. This federally funded service was administered by the coordinator, Ron Varett, of the Office of Public Health along with two nurses.  They also provided education on the importance of using preventive methods to stay healthy and disease free.


Welcome to the Outreach Center

At the Outreach Center we meet people
struggling to regain their dignity everyday.
Their struggles are real, their needs are pressing
and their hope is limited.

They are the poor and they are the physically, mentally or emotionally ill. They are unemployed. They are those without transportation, food, clothing, childcare, legal help or a network of support. They are without resources in a crisis.

They feel despair, apathy and a lack of hope.
They need you and me and us.
They need the Outreach Center.

Our Mission is helping to give people back their
God-given dignity by transforming lives to
reach their highest potential.

Restoring a shattered life takes time.
By parternering with us you can help transform lives
one at a time, day by day, piece by piece.
