Register Now: HLF's Annual Community Meeting

The Healthy Lakewood Foundation (HLF) invites you to our Annual Community Meeting on Wednesday, September 18 at 7 PM at Cove Community Center (12525 Lake Avenue, Lakewood). HLF's community meeting offers an opportunity to community members to learn about HLF’s grantmaking, collaborations, and community engagement work over the past year.


Childcare is available onsite with advanced registration. For more information and to register, click here.

This year's Community Meeting guest speaker is April Walker, Founder of Philanthropy for the People. HLF recently worked with April on an equitable grantmaking framework that will direct HLF's future work.


At the Community Meeting, April will discuss the intersection of equity and philanthropy and provide insights into the resources and support the non-profit sector needs to serve those most impacted by systemic “isms.”

 

There will be time for questions and group conversations. Please join us for what promises to be a meaningful, judgment-free opportunity for learning and reflection.
