Since its launch in 2014, the Connect for Community (formerly Food for Fines) program has collected over 37,000 canned food items for those in need and facilitated nearly $56,000 in citations paid. During the past 10 years, this program has aimed to encourage community engagement and support those less fortunate during the holiday season.
To celebrate a decade of successful community giveback, we’re expanding our program to include monetary donations. For every dollar donated to pay off an outstanding citation, LEXPARK is matching it two for one! As such, a $10 donation to those in need would pay off a $20 citation. Donations are available for the following local non-profits: GreenHouse17, Step by Step, Lexington Black Prosperity Initiative, Arbor Youth Services, Shepherds House, and God’s Pantry.
Using the form below, choose your donation amount, the organization you wish to donate to, and fill in your details to turn citations into celebrations! But hurry, this opportunity ends December 13th!
