Black Cafe in Lafayette will be holding a fundraiser after a fire in May damaged their building.
The fundraiser, a BBQ Poboy sale, is happening Friday, June 3, 2022, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm in downtown Lafayette at 124 S. Buchanan Street in Lafayette.
All benefits will go to the Black Cafe in its efforts to reopen its doors to customers. Donations can also be made directly without the purchase of a meal.
According to the owners Jodee and Trey Ware, on May 7, an apartment above Black Café caught fire.
No one was injured, but there was significant water and smoke damage to the cafe. As a result, the cafe had to close until repairs can be made.
A gofundme was set up for the business and has raised $13,000 of its $50,000 goal.
