Thank you, Lakesiders! We pause today to give thanks for the gifts and blessings Lakeside Chautauqua has received on #GivingTuesday. We are in awe of your kindness and generosity.
On November 29, over 160 Lakesiders opened their hearts and collectively gave more than $220,000 in celebration of #GivingTuesday.
Lakesiders from 91 cities and 17 states stepped forward to take part in this Global Day of Giving.
Your generous support this year has helped strengthen the four Chautauqua pillars - religion, education, arts and recreation. In addition to the Lakeside Impact Fund, Lakesiders graciously supported the endowment, youth programming, Sesquicentennial Celebration, Memorial Garden, Ohio’s Most Beautiful Mile and gardens on #GivingTuesday.
The Lakeside Association and Foundation Boards, as well as the Lakeside Team are truly appreciative of your generosity and support. We thank you for caring so deeply for Lakeside. Coming together as a community is what creates the spirit of Chautauqua.
Thanks to your kindness, we’re closer to our Lakeside Impact Fund goal of $1.1 million. To date, the Lakeside community has collectively given $720,000 and is about $380,000 away from reaching the fiscal year goal by March 31, 2023.
Even though #GivingTuesday has passed, it’s not too late to participate in the spirit of giving this holiday season. Regardless of size, each gifts helps transform the lives of Lakesiders by providing opportunities to nurture mind, body and spirit. Make an online donation today or call 419-798-4461, ext. 246.
