Celebrating Over 10 Years of Grace

Grace at the Green Light offers New Orleans' unhoused community choices while providing for their basic needs (water, food, clothing, and community) in a loving manner that embraces the human spirit. We are the only organization that provides daily intensive case management and nutritional support, 365 days a year, for those not staying overnight in local shelters. Since 2014, Grace has: 

• Served 500,000 meals & 250,000 items of clothing (Meals with Love)

• Reunited 4,000 individuals with family, with 94% remaining housed after 3 months (Going Home)

• Installed 16 water fountains and distributed 1.5 million water bottles (Hydrate NOLA)
