LoK Poster 2024

From February 29th to May 22nd, we're rallying our community to make a big impact through small acts of kindness. Join us in supporting our local nonprofits and making a difference in the lives of those in need.

Here's how you can get involved and show your support:

  1. Donate: Consider making a monetary contribution to one or more of our partner nonprofits. Every dollar counts and helps them continue their vital work in our community.
  2. Volunteer: Offer your time and skills to assist local nonprofits with their programs and initiatives. Whether it's lending a hand at events, helping with administrative tasks, or providing professional expertise, your assistance can make a significant difference.
  3. Spread the Word: Share our Leap of Kindness Campaign on social media, and encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to join in. The more people we reach, the greater impact we can make together.
  4. Participate in Fundraising Events: Attend or organize fundraising events in support of our local nonprofits. From charity walks and runs to gala dinners and auctions, there are plenty of opportunities to have fun while supporting a worthy cause.
  5. Donate Goods: Many nonprofits rely on donations of goods and supplies to carry out their work effectively. Consider donating items such as clothing, food, school supplies, or household essentials to help meet their needs.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of others and build a stronger, more compassionate community. Join us in spreading kindness and generosity during our Leap of Kindness Campaign.
