Fwd: Spreading the word

[Leslie Zales]



If you are interested in:

- meeting new people; 

- learning about the needs of the town that are not met by our town budget;

- learning more about the nonprofits that support our town, it’s people and services…

you should go to this Open House to meet the people who make it happen and are looking to expand their diverse team. CEL is an incredible

Nonprofit that has a huge impact on its volunteers, donors and recipient organizations. 

I hope you make time to learn more and get involved.

You don't want to miss this.

January 2023 Welcome from the Co-Chairs CEL had a memorable 2022. More than $70,000 in CEL grants touched every part of Lexington this year, from cultural and historical events to the health and safety of our community. We also held our first ever CEL event—LexDoingGood–in October. Over 35 nonprofits and town agencies were present, networking and mixing with local citizens like you, and sharing stories of the life-changing work they do to enrich our town. In addition, we owe much gratitude to our generous donors. Thanks to your support, CEL ended the year with a highly successful annual appeal campaign. Your support enables us to continue our mission in helping our town and its nonprofit community thrive, in 2023 and beyond.  We are always looking for engaged community members to join our team. If you’d like to be part of our exciting work, and get to know your neighbors and the active nonprofits that enrich our community, reach out to us at ch...@lexingtonendowment.org.
