Our Program

Volunteers at St. Charles will serve a hot meal at noon in our courtyard on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month. This is our effort to assist individuals and families facing food insecurity in the Greater New Orleans area, as there are few resources of this kind in the Carrollton area or on Saturdays.

Donate Here

We love for individuals and groups to volunteer with our program - keep reading below to learn more.

However, if you’re not able to come by, you can help in other very important ways. Consider being a donor to the program today. You can sponsor one meal for $2.50 per person. As we aim to prepare forty meals per Saturday, a $100 gift could cover the cost of one whole Saturday.

If you’d like to make a donation to help cover the cost of food, note “free lunches” or “community meals” on your gift. Click the button below to access our several giving methods - PayPal, Venmo, Tithely, etc.

Volunteer With Us

Join us! We need volunteers to cook, serve, set up tables and clean up from about 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM. Again, this program will happen on the second and fourth Saturday of each month.
