🎄 It’s Christmas Eve, and a familiar favorite returns! 🎄

For the past few years, Alan has helped us welcome Christmas by reciting the classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and it continues to bring smiles and holiday cheer. đź’šđź“–

Full of heart, fun, and Christmas spirit, this reading is a great way to slow down and enjoy the season with our STARC family and community.

✨ Settle in, press play, and enjoy this Christmas Eve favorite! ✨

🎄 With Christmas just a few days away, we’re bringing the fun with some STARC holiday cheer! 🎄

We’re excited to share the joyful video featuring Alan singing “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas.” 🦛🎶

This performance is full of smiles, laughter, and that extra bit of holiday magic that makes the season so special for our STARC of Louisiana family and community.

✨ Turn up the volume, enjoy the moment, and let the holiday cheer begin! ✨

🎄✨ A Christmas to remember!

Our STARC of Louisiana family came together to celebrate the season at our East and West campus Christmas parties, and the joy was contagious! From laughter and smiles to a very special visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus, it was a beautiful reminder of the love, community, and togetherness that make this time of year so special.

Thank you to everyone who helped make these celebrations unforgettable. We’re so grateful to share moments like these with our incredible STARC family.

Merry Christmas from all of us at STARC of Louisiana! 🎅🤶❤️🎄

🎄What an incredible morning at STARC of Louisiana!

Today we gathered for our Annual Christmas Board Meeting and Gift Exchange, and it was truly a special time of connection and celebration. We were honored to recognize Mark Baham, our Executive Director, for an amazing 25 years of dedicated service to STARC of Louisiana. Mark’s leadership and commitment have made a lasting impact on the lives of so many, and we are deeply grateful for all he does.

We were also thrilled to have Shawn and Shannon Torres along with Jimmy and Katie Burns from In-Telecom, who presented the Community Wins Golf Tournament check. Thanks to their generosity and support, the tournament raised over $70,000 to fund our new respite center! ⛳💙

Thank you to everyone who continues to support our mission and help make moments like these possible. Together, we are making a difference every day.

STARC is overjoyed and so grateful to be chosen as a beneficiary of the 10th Annual Dufrene Fishing Rodeo. During the check presentation, our Development Coordinator, Karen Carroll, was stunned and thrilled to learn the donation was a life-changing amount of $20,000! This incredible gift was made possible by the hard work and kindness of Jacob Dufrene, Katelyn Montalbano, Joe Cochran, and so many others.

The funds will go toward our new Respite Home in Slidell, LA, a safe and loving place for participants while their families take a break. This is truly a blessing, and we are so thankful for Dufrene and their HUGE impact.

If you need building supplies, check out Dufrene Building Materials at their Hwy 190 West location in Slidell, LA. They also have stores in Belle Chasse, Arabi, Thibodaux, Luling, Hammond, Grand Isle, Cut Off, and Gulfport, MS. Dufrene has been helping communities build for decades while giving back in amazing ways.

Thank you, Dufrene, for helping STARC make dreams come true!

Thank you for helping keep this cherished tradition alive.
