GREEN RING TOUR 2022
Discover Lents Past - Connect Today - shape the Future


WE TRAVELED TO LENTS' ORIGINS AND BACK
TO OUR COMMUNITY'S RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTs
DURING the Green Ring TOUR EVENT AND FUNDRAISER, WHILE POWERING OUR NEIGHBORHOOD INITIATIVES IN 2022 AND BEYOND!

A big shout out to all of our incredible community behind the Green Ring Tour 2022. Together, between June 25th and July 2nd, we raised an amazing $2,070 and connected over 80 community members to our local resources and networks, and will reach many more in 2023, through:
​
  • Contributions from 32 households, including 3 personal fundraiser teams propelling goals, such as "Riding My Bike for Climate Justice", and Green Lents to our mission of thriving resilient community!
  • Dozens of community members who explored Lents' history and present along the Green Ring in their own way or participated in our trivia, bike and walk tours, and scavenger hunt.
  • 10 volunteers contributing 150+ hours to the event from start to finish with support of our Development Director, Dasha Foerster and Latinx Community Advocate, Angelica Cortes.
  • 2022 Green Ring Tour map updated with free community resources and placemaking sites.
  • 4 amazing local businesses investing $1,350 to match donor contributions.
  • 12 amazing local businesses supporting our Scavenger Hunt and raffle with fun prizes worth $775+.

Thank you for engaging so deeply with your local resources and networks, and directly supporting Green Lents' mission to cultivate a thriving, resilient and environmentally just neighborhood through our fun fundraising activities!
