About LUM
A lifeline of help and hope
Lafayette Urban Ministry is an organization of more than 50 churches that serves as a social safety net for individuals, children and families in Tippecanoe County.
For more than 50 years, LUM has worked to give back the hope, the future, and the self-respect to our neighbors in need. LUM takes an active role in trying to change social injustices and improve the quality of life for the individuals, children and families in our community.
LUM is committed to loving neighbors, seeking justice, empowering the least among us, and renewing the social ministry through its food programs, financial assistance, homeless services, and youth programs.
