Connect to a Cause with the Community Foundation of Lorain

The Community Foundation of Lorain County will host Connect to a Cause, their annual crowdfunding campaign, on September 21, 2023. This unique event allows community members to donate directly to non-profit organizations, including The Legal Aid Society, that align with their values and interests.

Connect to a Cause provides both immediate and long-term support for participating organizations, enabling them to meet current budgetary needs and build their endowment. This unique approach empowers organizations to be proactive and sustainable in their efforts to make a lasting impact in Lorain County. Learn more at peoplewhocare.org/c2c2023.

Legal Aid is grateful for the support of The Community Foundation of Lorain County through responsive grantmaking, a special endowment fund, and Connect to a Cause.
