Due to COVID, parades have been cancelled and LARC is in need of bead donations. To assist LARC with donations, Rise Chiropractic on Albertsons Parkway in Broussard is having a “REVERSE” Parade on February 6th from 1-3pm.  You throw your beads to them and these beads are donated to LARC.  Also Café Habana on Bertrand Street in Lafayette will be open Mardi Gras day, February 16th selling their famous Cuban sandwiches. The proceeds will benefit LARC.  Drive thru or stay awhile.

LARC’s Beads-N-More Store employees have worked all year sorting and packaging recycled beads.  This LARC Enterprise creates jobs and opportunities for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities. LARC is fully stocked with beads and is offering call ahead services, where you can call in your order, your order will be pulled and we will have it waiting for you.    You can call 337-981-8484.  Also the prices and sizes are on our website at www.lafayettelarc.org.
