Thank you to everyone who came out in a celebration of community and support for the school this past Saturday. With your help, Lafayette in Bloom raised more than $170,000 towards the resources and programming that enhance the Lafayette experience for all of our children.
We still have a few items without bids and some kid and parent parties still with openings. We also added a few more spots to sold out parties like Oktoberfest! Visit Lafayette2023.givesmart.com to sign up!We have a long list of people to thank for making this possible starting with everyone who showed up to attend, bid on items, donate items, and volunteer their time to create such a wonderful evening.
