LUM Offers Several Ways to Support & Engage |

LUM relies on donations, and while unrestricted cash contributions are ideal, there are unique ways to give, such as donating stocks, purchasing needed items from the LUM Wish List, using our Amazon Wish List for online shopping, including LUM in your last will & testament, hosting a collection drive at your church or event, and launching a Facebook fundraiser for special occasions or holidays. Below are even more ways for you, your family, or your group to get engaged and invest in LUM — including the Klemme Donation Match, Soup Day, Holiday Card Fundraiser, Turkey Trot 5K Run, Community Thanksgiving Feast, and Jubilee Christmas. Explore the diverse options to support LUM in addition to monetary gifts.
