Longmont Legacy is made up of couples and individuals who have pooled their resources in an endowment to benefit local non-profits. The focus of giving for this group is youth and children. Celebrating its seventh year of giving back to the community, Longmont Legacy has given over $30,000 to local projects since its beginning in 2000.
This year Longmont Legacy is adopting an apartment at The Atwood Shelter, the local emergency family housing shelter. Longmont Legacy members will participate in providing necessary housing items so that the families can save the money they are making to move into housing when they leave the shelter.
Longmont Legacy will also be adopting the fourth grade at Spangler Elementary. Members of Longmont Legacy will be providing volunteers to work with the two classes as well as providing some necessary and extra items for their education.
In addition, Longmont Legacy we will provide the resources for a $1,000 scholarship to a student graduating from a high school in the St. Vrain Valley who will attend Front Range Community College in the fall of 2008. Applications will be received by Front Range and selections will be made by Front range as well.
