The organization aims to foster community engagement, support neighborhood growth, and unite people through cultural education. Founded by the True Friends Society of Lafayette in the 1880s, which protected citizens from vigilante groups and supported Black residents, Maison Freetown continues this legacy by serving as a pillar of hope and promoting neighborhood development. By preserving the past, Maison Freetown works tirelessly to cultivate a better tomorrow for all.
