LHAND Outreach Program Back in High Gear

The Lynn Housing Authority & Neighborhood Development (LHAND) has begun fundraising to increase their efforts in helping around the community.  The LHAND’s Outreach Program has a strong commitment to helping residents and the greater Lynn community.  Started approximately twelve years ago, the Outreach Program has helped many families in the City of Lynn.  Outreach support has provided kids with new winter jackets, clothing for back to school and trips to summer camp.  Families and seniors have received food and gift baskets for various holidays throughout the year. 

The Outreach Program, described as “impressive” by Executive Director, Charles Gaeta, will be working on many fundraisers throughout the year.  “The Outreach Program has been instrumental in helping families who have very little.  It is great to see our employees going above and beyond to give back to the less fortunate.”

The first two fundraisers were a great success with the selling of over 500 Hershey Kiss Roses and hosting Trivia Night.  Be on the lookout for the LHAND Outreach Programs COOKBOOKS available this fall!
