Earlier this month, everyone across Acadiana collectively held our breath and said a prayer when we heard a vehicle had crashed into Sugar N' Spice Daycare on Beadle Rd. in Lafayette. One teacher and three babies were injured in the accident. Our Lady Of Lourdes is looking to help those folks, along with helping to feed Acadiana's hungry for Thanksgiving.
Blood supplies are at an extreme low right now at United Blood Services, and they are hoping that the annual Race Against The Clock marathon blood drive will encourage donors to donate.
The holidays usually means low blood supplies and this 4th of July proved no different. Plummeting blood donations since Memorial Day has forced United Blood Services to issue an emergency appeal for all blood types.

This time of year, donations are typically down...
