I’m thankful for Lakewood Connects because I believe in a Lakewood that’s a great place for all kids to grow up from Colfax to Green Mountain. There are significant needs and challenges facing our Lakewood kids, for example almost 1/4 are on free and reduced lunch and kids makeup the largest community served by the Action Center. Lakewood Connects helps bridge the gap, so that all kids can get a fair shot in Lakewood.
