Food Net Board of Directors Appreciates LPSO Assis

Dear Mike, On behalf of the Board of Directors of Foodnet and the thousands of less-fortunate people who benefit from our food bank, I want to express our gratitude to you and the Department for the major role that you played in our annual Christmas Food Drive. The Twenty-Third annual KLFY-TV-10/Foodnet “Food for Families” food drive was a great success – one of our best. We finished with a total of seventy-four tons of food. Our success could not have been realized without your co-operation and the assistance of the Trustees. The courtesy and co-operation of my friend, Albert Glaude. Albert is always there with his calmness and re-assurance when just about everything is dependent on the assistance of the trustees. I am very grateful to all of you. Sincerely Marcelle F. Citron Founder/Chairman

WD Smith Center Community Project

Tuesday, September 2, 2003

This past summer, the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office partnered with the Lafayette Parish School Board to improve the appearance of the WD Smith Career Center. Inmate workers, supervised by Lafayette Parish Sheriff Deputies, completed over 1700 man-hours pressure washing, scraping, painting, and assisting with various maintenance tasks during the 9-week contract period that ran from the beginning of June through the middle of August.

The Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office works with several community groups throughout the year, providing inmate workers to assist with events such as the annual Foodnet Food for Families Food Drive, Lafayette Junior League's Tinsels and Treasures, the Lafayette Chamber/Lafayette School Board Net Day Project and Litter Abatement throughout the parish.
