“Because of The Stuller Family Foundation, Parish Proud is able to work towards a cleaner Lafayette Parish. They share the same love for our culture as we do and want to see Lafayette’s landscape look the best that it can. Without the generosity of The Stuller Family Foundation Parish Proud couldn’t hope to impact as many people as we do, we’ll be forever grateful!”

“Faith House has always been an organization that is strongly supported by our community. Our partnership with the Stuller Family Foundation has been extremely beneficial as we pursue our mission to save the lives of victims of domestic violence. Without the support of the foundation we would not have been able to open the doors of our transitional housing facility and help families to put their lives back together. Together we are making a difference for victims of violence and as we look to the future I see great success and achievement in our work.”

“Our retreat serves as a place where groups arrive, as our Lord encountered them in their woundedness, and seek to heal and reconnect with our core Christian values.
As a result of The Stuller Family Foundation’s generosity, we were able to expand the number of souls reached by almost 1,000 who came through the humble doors of Our Lady of the Bayous. We were able to connect with more local groups to expand our reach and share our Christian message of faith and love. These groups include St. Thomas More, Our Lady of Wisdom, Red Bird Ministries, ACTS retreat, and Rachel’s Vineyard.
In addition to these direct local effects, the foundation’s support allowed for our missionaries to continue serving in the poorest of the poor in 12 different countries as we bring them to an encounter with Jesus.”

The foundation has been a steadfast and engaged supporter of character education, leadership training and healthy development of young people in Acadiana. Though we are grateful for the financial support, it pales in comparison to the real benefit of our partnership with the foundation and its Director…..networking, training and encouragement.”
