In addition to the volunteer activities, community members donated food and personal care items for underserved populations in Lexington.
Compass for Kids is in need of: toilet paper, toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, health and beauty aids.
The Lexington Food Pantry specifically requests: 15 oz cans of fruit, 16 oz cans of stews, chilis, and hashes.
