Community Foundation of Acadiana is building philanthropy in Acadiana, one brick at a time.

The future home (and the land it sits on) of Community Foundation of Acadiana is being donated through the generosity of Rodney and Cindi Savoy, and they, along with the Foundation, hope that the community embraces the beautiful building as a home for philanthropy in Acadiana.

To show your support for CFA, those who support philanthropy and believe in its power to transform Acadiana are asked to help institutionalize our efforts. Philanthropy is one of the most important steps in building the best Acadiana we can envision.

You can show your commitment to the community by purchasing a brick to be placed in the courtyard at the new building. The courtyard is prominent as people enter the building, and you will be identified as someone who supports the Foundation and the community.

Bricks are $150 for a four by eight inch brick, $250 for an eight by eight inch brick. The 4x8 brick will have space for three lines, eighteen characters per line and the 8x8 brick will have space for six lines, 18 characters per line.

You may purchase a brick in honor or in memory of a loved one. In addition, those who purchase bricks will become a Friend of the Community for one year. For more information about the Foundation's Friends of the Community program, visit:

The net proceeds from all brick sales will go into a permanently endowed fund for the maintenance and operations of the home for Community Foundation of Acadiana.
