L.O.U. Louisville Outreach for the Unsheltered
L.O.U. is a local organization that focuses on bringing resources to some of the most vulnerable populations in Louisville. They not only bring food and water and clothing but they also develop relationships with the unsheltered and help to connect them with the resources they need to find housing or the help they need.
