LUM Hope for Tomorrow
Fundraising Event Benefiting Lafayette Urban Ministry
Hope for Tomorrow Was More than a Fundraiser
Hope for Tomorrow was more than just a fundraising event. It was a gathering of individuals who believe in showing up for their neighbors and investing in a stronger, more compassionate community. LUM is proud to share that the event raised more than $80,000 to support the life-changing programs of Lafayette Urban Ministry. The evening was filled with energy and generosity, as guests enjoyed bidding on a variety of exciting auction packages while coming together for a meaningful cause. One of the most powerful moments of the night was hearing from two former guests of the LUM Emergency Shelter, who courageously shared their personal journeys. Their stories reminded us all of the real impact of this work and how, through the support of LUM, they have found stability, hope, and a path forward.
Hope for Tomorrow is more than a fundraising event—it is a shared commitment to our neighbors and to a stronger, more compassionate community. Benefiting Lafayette Urban Ministry, this gathering brings people together who believe that hope is built through action and that no one should face hardship alone.
