This past fall LEND has been working at a feverish pace to get our operations up and running again. The summer team did an excellent job managing client and community relations as the majority of the students were on their holidays but there was plenty of work to be done when we came back for classes. Along with getting our day-to-day operations up and running, LEND welcomed six new members to the team. These students showed passion and enthusiasm for LEND's mission and we have full confidence in them carrying LEND's mission on for the next four years.
Operationally, LEND has been busy re-engaging the Evanston community. We have received four loan requests throughout Evanston totalling in $18,000. These request continue to show us that our services are needed in this community.
With the holidays around the corner, everyone at LEND would like to ask our supporters to continue to support LEND in its mission to further economic development in Evanston. Attached is a photo of our new holiday fundraising campaign that is in alignment with Giving Tuesday, a global day of philanthropy. However, we will be extending our campaign throughout the holidays up until the New Year.
In conclusion, we wish everyone very happy holidays and a happy New Year!
