Community Champions

Community Champions brings together service-minded organizations to meet the needs of our diverse and vibrant community. The vision is that Lawrence is a community where neighbors work together for the joy and success of all. By working together, area non-profits will collaborate to better serve our community.

The Community will have access to a resource page hosted on the City’s website. This site will give all residents quick access to businesses that can help meet individual needs and achieve success.
