Who We Are
Our Mission:
We are a nonprofit community organization of faith congregations. Our mission is to work together to improve the quality of life in our communities.
Our History:
WIN is an interfaith organization of approximately 40,000 families working through 29 congregations across the greater Baton Rouge, Louisiana area. WIN was established by concerned religious leaders in 1994 as a vehicle to respond to the needs of families throughout the city. WIN founders believed that by uniting people in a multicultural and interfaith organization, a powerful voice could emerge in response to the numerous problems present in our urban neighborhoods. WIN is a member of the People Improving Communities Through Organizing (PICO) National Network, and the statewide network Louisiana Interfaiths Together (PICO LIFT).
